I'll get back to you once i've got more free time if you can wait till monday :) I'm sure some of the others will have some decent feedback for you until then :)
 
First off, what is your goal? Gain or continue losing? To me that is still a calorie deficit.

I'd say you need a full diet break, as hormonally I'm sure there has been a downgrade.

Fat are too low.
 
well i want to get rid my of my belly as i still got a bit of fat there, since xmas ive been on a diet break as im on holidays till monday, i wanna gain muscle but i just wanna flat stomach first
 
First of all congrats on the weight loss, i personally think you need to add an extra 20% to the proportion sizes as there is not enough calories in that diet.
I would be afraid that my body would adjust to a low calorie diet and once i returned back to normal eating that i would put all the weight back on, which has happened to me twice in the last 5 years.
 
thanks, never thought about how my body would adjust to low cal, so around 1900-2000 calories to start off with? i wanna lose bodyfat and maintain as much muscle as i can
 
Yeah that sounds about right to me, maybe even 2000-2400 depending on how active you are, although please note that i am no expert, hopefully some-one with a bit more knowledge can confirm this.
 
OP, I'd suggest starting on 2250-2300 calories (your bodyweight x 30 calories) and track your progress from there. As Skylion mentioned, it will be effected by how active you are.

Having/being in a large calorie deficit is not needed and can quickly lead to large hormonal downgrades. Which long term can make things more difficult. By starting at that calorie intake and tracking your progress after 2 weeks, adjust your calories if needed by 10%.

You need to have a read also of my thread on losing fat while gaining muscle, it is really informative :)
 
alright ill up my calories a bit, can u suggest any others foods i could add into my typical meal plan i posted earlier as im gonna struggle to hit that much calories i think.

i work as a courier so im pretty much driving/moving from 8-5 monday to friday so i guess im pretty active.
 
Calorie dense foods - eggs, beef, lamb, turkey, chicken thigh, cheese, nuts and nut butters, chocolate, ice-cream etc etc
 
Chocolate, Ice cream? Lol I hit about 2000 calories yesterday according to myfitness pal and that was 200g protein/160g carbs/60g fats. I added more brown rice to my lunch which is 200g now. And brought some cottage cheese as a after dinner snack
