hey /fit/.
So I just got home from uni and that means I can start boxing again. Problem is I bulked a little while still in school and now need to lose the last couple of pounds on my stomach, in essence cutting. Yes I know I can't spot reduce but thats where my last fat deposits are.

I usually work out for about 1-2 hours 5-6 days a week and it usually consists of conditioning/strength/training exercises. I was doing a bodybuilder split at school but that was because I didn't have any training equipment or conditioning knowledge. I ate 6 meals a day at school usually totaling 2800 calories a day but have cut that down to 2300 now that I'm cutting. But is there anything special that I should be eating/stop eating?

I got rid of protein bars (35g of sugar) but still do a whey protein shake a day. Breakfast usually consists of a bowl of fiber one and kashi crunch. The rest of my meals are high fiber (apples, broccoli, oatmeal, fiber 1 bars) and protein (grilled chicken, turkey breast, roast beef, salmon, shrimp, almonds, and red meat time to time). Should I cut out the roast beef and just stick to the turkey breast? Should I start eating salads again? Any general tips or am I doing all I can and just have to wait it out for results? I'm sorry if this is an annoying question but the last pounds of stomach fat are just so fucking frustrating.

Go ahead and eat a lot at breakfast, but eat as soon as you can, studies have shown a correlation between weight and how long people wait to eat.

Avoid high fructose corn syrup containing foods, creatine is nice to have to help prevent you from losing muscle while cutting, high ratio of proteins and fats at night (carbs may process to fat while you sleep), and salad = yes, but be careful about what you use for dressings (if anything). By the way, you can safely reduce your calories a little further without risking destroying your muscle mass via unregulated catabolism.

Something that kept me skinny when I was younger, despite consuming a ludacris amount of calories, was ridiculously long walks. Like in the realm of 10-15 miles. It's very low intensity, but the elevated metabolism for such a long period of time, and the overall calorie burn will generally net a lot higher than other high-intensity exercises.

Look into how bodybuilders cut for additional tips.
