There’s a lot smarter ways to cut. 2 hours a day for most people is just wayyyy too much.
Only having carbs in the morning isn’t a good idea at all, have you read any of my posts about the importance of peri-workout nutrition?
Increasing t3 isn’t a magic fix, it all depends on your diet and training. Your 2 hours of cardio most certainly isn’t helping with the striations, if anything you’ll be losing muscle from this.
How many weeks out are you? Can you post a current picture?

Sorry to break it to you, but if this is how you look from doing 2 hours of cardio a day and carbs only at breakfast. You should fire your coach! You can be so much better than this and it’s a shame because you obviously know how to put in the work.
As for specifics, your legs looks very flat and lacking detail (due to the cardio). All over you are soft and the muscles are not “popping” due to the cardio and wrong timing of carbs. Chest and shoulders need a lot more detail especially at 3 weeks out. You should be close to stage ready at this point.
On top of this, you still have some bodyfat to lose (assuming you’re doing a bodybuilding show)
Your body is probably in some kind of defense mechanism because of all of the cardio and under eating, this is why the body will struggle to hold on to the last few pounds of fat. It’s hard for me to give advise because you will need to change everything from diet, training and cardio.
My best advise is to hire a reputable bodybuilding coach, just do your research. Don’t go after any Internet gurus who are just good at marketing. Make sure they have a good track record with clients and themselves… If they can’t get themselves in shape then they can’t be relied on to bring you in shape.
From my experience, most people who are not high national level or pros don’t have enough personal experience and are usually just Internet gurus who can’t produce the results they promise.
