No change this week in weight. However, my scale shows a 1% drop in body fat since my last weigh-in 10 days ago.
I'm eating carbs after my morning fasted cardio as well a before and after my afternoon training sessions, so hopefully I am maintaining good glycogen levels and preventing muscle loss as much as possible.
I eat little to no carbs throughout the day, as I am sedentary at my desk and burn very little energy at work.
currently I'm only eating around 100-150g of carbs per day. This may change as time goes on.

Good job. I'm hanging out in the low 190s and plan to stay there to the end of the month. After that, a slow cut of about 10 pounds, and then maintain for a couple weeks, then about another 5. You're doing great. My job bounces back and forth between sedentary and active with no way of figuring out which way it will be. Fickle customers.

To prevent muscle loss, ensure you have sufficient amino's and protein's. The only purpose of glucose after workouts is to call insulin to carry amino's and protein's into muscle cells, not much needed after cardio, but definitely after weight-lifting.

Mahjohn, Thanks for the advice. I eat the majority of my daily carbs after I lift. I also eat 200+ grams of protein per day from dairy, lean meats, eggs, and to a lesser degree from vegetable sources. I also supplement l-leucine, l-isoleucine, and l-valine.

If you're looking to improve cardio and weight training performance, Creatine @5g a day :-)
