Hello....

New here to this app and these message boards.
Looking at, like most of the people here, to lose some weight and get a little support along the way.

I hired a trainer to boost me at the gym, boy oh boy is that tough! But probably one of the better choices.
As far as working out, I go to the gym 4-5 times a week for a moderate/hard workout.

He tells me to eat almost 2200 calories a day and I'm having a really hard time with it.
I'm 50 years old, weigh 214
I'm trying 6 small meals a day, but not ever meeting that goal.
I understand the concept of speeding up my mobilization but my brain still tells me it's too much

If anyone could look over my food and offer suggestions, it would be appreciated


Breakfast : Egg white quiche (large cup cake size) with roasted peppers and turkey burger

Snack 1 : Almond milk, protein powder, chia seeds, ground flax, greek yogurt.... all in smoothie (415 calories)
