maybe a split like 50% protien, 30% carbs, 20% fat around 2500 cals for cutting. but its really dependent on you age, hieght, and weight. id say at least 200g of carbs..some would say thats too much. as for the carbs after 5 id say thats bologna...keep eating them but keep them simple carbs. no bagels, breads of pastas. keep carbs coming from fruits, juice and veggies.
maybe you need to rip out some more intense cardio throughout the week to lose the layer

What exactly does your diet look like. Also height, weight. Eating healthy means many different things to different people. It may just take a few tweaks or an entire overhaul. Bear in mind too that the abdominal fat is the most stubborn and always the last to go. It can be very very frustrating.
im 24 and i way 180 lbs. my carbs are brown rice, black beans, sweet potato, a bowl of cereal and i have a bagel in the morning(i guess i should stop the last two). fats are eye round steak, olive oil, peanut butter, 2 eggs w/ yolk every other day. for my low fat and no carb meals after 5pm are chicken, egg whites, broccoli, cottage cheese, protein shakes and tuna. i just started doing cardio for 45 min right when i wake up but its to tough to do it on an empty stomach. what should be my daily intake of carbs/fat/protein. i know my diet is what i have to perfect to get my stomach where i want it.

Mostly you need to focus on total calories. Keep that as your big picture. What you do from there is fine tuning. There isn't much magic at that point that some people know that you don't. Limiting carbs after a certain time is definitely a sound idea. Your choices of carbs are important too. I do like it in this order: Veggies, thin skinned dark fruit or beans, whole grains. But if I am choosing a whole grain I would go sweet potato, oats, and then anything else.
So, yes a bagel is just plain stupid. Processed, has wheat gluten, and flour.
30/40/30 works great but so can more restricted carbs. The TNT diet from Jeff Volek is sound and lets you choose your macronutrient breakdown based on your goals. He is also probably the leading expert on low carb nutrition and performance. That is a guy that cuts through all the "bullshit" that we think we know to be true. He is one person that has scientifically studied many aspects of low carb eating. Again it doesn't have to be ketogenic either.
If you keep an open mind you can learn a lot. Also I would ditch the cardio on an empty stomach.
