What is the best time of day to cut carbs?

I'm about to gradually start cutting. I'm not quite sure what the best meal of the day is to take carbs out of, whithout out hindering my gains . Currently, my diet looks something like this

Meal 1
10 egg whites
1 whole egg
1/2 cup of oatmeal
1 bannana
multivitamin

meal2
2 scoop ON whey
1/2 cup oats

meal 3
2 chicken breasts
1 cup brown rice
salad greens

meal 4 (1 hour before workout)
2 scoops ON whey
1/2 cup oats
1 bannana

pre workout: 3 scoops jack3d

meal 5 (post workout)
2 scoops whey
1/4 cup of maple syrup
multivitamin

meal 6:
buffalo burger
1 cup brown rice
salad greens

meal 7:
1 cup cottage cheese
2 tablespoon of peanut butter

What are your stats? That's roughly 3500 cals, seems kinda high for a cut.

I havn't started cutting just yet. I weigh about 180 right now and I'm 5 foot 10. I'm not sure what my body fat percentage is, but I can tell you i have visible abs, lol.

anywhere except pre and post workout meals.

I dont think it should really matter bro as long as it fits into your Caloric intake/deficit/macros for the day. Calories in calories out. Its not going to hinder your gains. Eating TOO MUCH will do that to your cut. For example I workout in the evening, take my PWO protein shake w/ gatorade powder for carbs or oats. Then an hour or so later I have a REAL meal w/ more carbs right before I go to bed even. I'm not going to cut those out just b/c its almost bed time

I pose this question, b/c as easily as I can grow, I tend to also flatten out pretty easily

It's all good bro. Honestly I think it's just all in your head. Most of the time it's pretty mental. I know EXACTLY how you feel. As long as you keep up your workout w/ 100% effort and intensity. Proper nutrition w/ adequate & high protein intake you wont deflate sort o speak or lose your gains

Also, how important is it to have carbs after the post work out meal

I couldn't agree more, bodybuilding is such a mind f**k

I'd say it's pretty damn important. Just as important as Pre-workout, Post workout, and POST POST workout if you know what I mean haha. You need the carbs after an intense workout session so that it can BOOST recovery efforts & to fuel your muscles for the next time you hit the weights!
