I've never been a fan of no carb diets. I probably average about 175-200 a day on my healthy eating days. It's those other days that get me. Thankfully there aren't that many.
It's important to have a good macro balance (protein/carbs/fats), so that you have enough protein to maintain muscle mass while cutting, but also have enough energy from carbs to train hard at the gym. People often assume that their weight loss is from fat, but it can very well be muscle if you don't take care of your protein intake and muscle training while cutting. It's a common recommendation to target your weight in lbs as grams of protein per day, e.g. if your weight is 180lbs then target 180g of protein per day. With strict calorie budget this can be difficult to reach without protein supplements though. When cutting I target ~60g of fats and the rest of my ~1800kcal budget in carbs, which gives me healthy ~0.5kg/week weight loss. Generally also the 0.5kg weight loss per week is recommended to minimize muscle loss. And yeah, I weigh everything I eat/drink when cutting so there's no cheating.
