buy glutacene and drink it during workouts and don't eat pasta when cutting. You can go to www.yourprd.com for the glutacene

i would take it post workout and around 10:00 pm if i was you, 5 grams each time, also i get l-glutamine at gnc, not the best price out there probably im sure you will get some posts with some better prices but for convenience it is good.

without pasta my only carb intake is 2 pieces of wheat bread and one bowl of oatmeal I think that would be under 60g of carbs a day,,,right?

If you can...get some whole wheat pasta. The stuff is pretty good and is better GI-wise for cutting up. As for the glutamine i would take it before bed and in the morning or pre-workout. Your preworkout meal is so small (4 egg whites is under 100 cals if im not mistaken) that it might be a good time to take it. I would say after your workout like the others have been saying but with a good protein shake post workout you should be getting good glutamine then. Just my thoughts

o i didnt notice this earlier, you definitely need to add some carbs in there postworkout, i do 75 grams dextrose postworkout, with additional carbs for the day coming from 1 cup brown rice in the morning,a nd a little from my shakes and bar, not much though and i have had great success. do at least 30 g. high gi carbs postworkout in my opinion.
