LOL, No excuse for PMs. People around here PM advice all the time, so that some threads don't get hijacked with a million questions that may not be related to the actual topic.

Well he is right about cutting the carbs off at a certain point, but you absolutely need carbs post workout!!!
After the post workout meal and into the night, no carbs.
I've had great success so far (dropped 22 lbs) and I cant narrow it down to one specific thing I did, more so it's a result of a series of changes.
[IN NO SPECIFIC ORDER]
1.) No eating carbs at night (meal timing)
2.) No eating junk or fast food (except for occasional cheat meal)
3.) Carb cycling (low, no carb and moderate carb days)
4.) More protein intake (to preserve muscle loss during the cut)
5.) Clean foods (chicken breasts, lean meats, sweet potato's, brown rice, etc)

Thanks Tommy, looks pretty concrete. I am good with all the above except #4. I have to get more protein in my meals.. especially after working out and thru my last meal. My last set of carbs will be pre-workout. I had a small bowl of oatmeal with 1 scoop of protein powder in it pre-workout today (lol, John recommended this too).
