Everyone was once a noob.
In reading what you said about carbs, I'm thinking you had more instances of splurging than you're talking about, or they were huge - to move an average up 10 points over the course of 3.5 weeks, which may suggest they're not the outliers you may think they are. If possible, try to make the protein your 40% macro, as that will help you retain your muscle while in a deficit.
That said - good luck with your journey - will be following along.
