Hey, guys.

I'm doing good.

Okay, so my question is about fat intake while cutting.

I consistently find that fat is the hardest macro for me to hit, especially when my calories are lower.

Protein is usually no problem.

Carbs are easy.

But fats tend to fall short unless I really go out of my way to include them.

So I'm wondering when calories are limited, is fat intake something that can be slightly sacrificed in the short term or is it necessary to consistently hit a minimum target of optimal fats even during a cut?

Essentially, how strict should I be with my fat macros when calories are tight?

And does the minimum number of fat stay the same, whether my calories are up or down?

Right now, my calories in this cut are around 1700 to 1800.

My protein, I usually try to hit a gram of protein per pound of body weight.

So I'm right around 130, but I usually go over that.

More in the 140, 150 range.

My fats, I'm aiming for 60 grams, but I tend to fall under that.

And then I just fill the rest with carbs.

So I'm currently, I just restarted anabolic.

So I'm in the gym three days a week.

The days that I'm not lifting, I usually am just, I'll either go like walk for a little bit.

I try to hit around 10,000 to 12,000 steps a day.
