ok so I am 265lbs at 5'7" i lift weights and thats why there are 4 protein shakes i take throughout the day but is the rest of this meal plan that i just started following any good and is there something you would take away or add. i went to a site and it said to maintain my weight i should be eating 2500 calories or so a day and to lose 1-2 lbs of weight a week i need to only take in 2000 calories a day and burn 500 calories a day to have a deficit of 1000 a day. if i do this 7 days a week then i would have a deficit of 7000 calories a week which should equal 2lbs of weight loss a week. what do you guys think. any help is appreciated. thanks.
