Hey guys, would appreciate your opinion on my Low Carb Diet for my cutting phase.

1.2-1.5 protein/lbs. 0.35-0.5 fat/lbs and I fill the remaining with carbs. Current weight of 150lbs.

Meal 1
40g Whey
156 kcal, 3.3g carbs, 32 pro, 3 fat

Postworkout
30g whey
60g Oats
4 Eggs whites
387 kcal, 38g carbs, 43g pro, 8g fat

Meal 3
150g sweet potato
150 chicken breast
Veges (Bean or Broccoli)
1 tbs of extra virgin olive oil
425 kcal, 32g carbs, 37g pro, 15g fat

Meal 4
5 Egg Whites
2 Egg Yolks
1 slice of low fat cheese
210 kcal, 4g carbs, 25g pro, 11g fat

Meal 5
120g Salmon
Veges
1 tbps of Peanut butter
345 kcal, 4g carbs, 30g pro, 22g Fat

Meal 6
150g chicken breast
20g Almond
Veges
275 kcal, 4 carbs, 38g pro, 11g Fat

Total: 1840 kcal, 99g carb, 207g pro, 69g fat
(Note: I excluded the kcal for the veges in here)

Maintenance Calories: 1950 kcal

Q: Should I reduce my kcal each week? What do u think of reducing around 100-200 kcal per week for 4 weeks. How would the protein and fat ratio be like for a low carb diet?

Please critique. Thanks.

i said "look" good coz u didn't mention ur height. so we don't know about ur maintenance calories.
and what your purpose of this diet? bulking or cutting? without this, hardly for us to give any opinion.

Bolded bit: include everything in your diet into your calculations, no point tracking macros/calories but excluding certain things. And your macros look alright. Monitor your weight for a week, and if you lose about 1lb or so, stick to what you're eating. When weight loss begins to stall then adjust accordingly either by lowering calories or increasing cardio. I would say increase cardio as it means you can somewhat maintain satiety and get into a deficit.

Thanks Dan, did include macro for veges and it's still within required calories. Quick question, for a low carbs diet, how do one goes about their protein fat ratio?

TBH, I'm not entirely sure. Though, might I ask why you've decided to go for a low carb diet? As I see it, it's perfectly fine to have a good amount of carbs in a diet even for weight loss unless you're hyper sensitive to carbs or diabetic.

Am cutting at the moment. Tried no carbs diet for 3 days and I'm already half dead. Guess i'm not ready for that yet, need my carbs!! What I did was fill in 1.2-1.5g pro/lbs, 0.35-0.5g fat/lbs and remaining carbs. Am interested to know how other's goes through it...
