Sounds like poor calculation to me unless your job is very physical.
And is that why you haven't lost any weight in months? I know many guys your size who DO take a pretty significant cut in calories to lean up. I am talking guys who are also trying to maintain their muscle mass. Catabolism of muscle mass is very over-rated as long as your protein is very high, so taking a drastic cut can speed up the process of leaning out. I really see no reason you should't be under 2k calories. |

I've cut on 1500 calories a day.
210g protein x4 calories = 840 calories 60g fat x9 calories = 540 calories 25g carbs x 4 calories = 100 calories Total = 1480 calories. |

When I’m really trying to cut, yes.
But even now at maintenance I only do 50g of carbs most day except Saturday (eat what I want that day). And usually once during the week I’ll have a meal with about 50g carbs at dinner on a workout day. But other than that, it’s low carb. I honestly like eating this way now. Been doing it many years. |

I don’t believe in full Keto for most people. And definitely not for someone who likes to lift weights consistently. Your body does need some carbs. If I did more endurance type exercise I’d increase my carbs more, but I mostly just lift weights so they aren’t as needed and I stay leaner by limiting carbs.

100% agree with that plan. I like one higher calorie day during week. It’s a nice break if nothing else.
