Expert Advice Needed - Fat Loss and Muscle Gain

MrsRachaelFisk1

Gooood morning MyFitnessPal fam!

I've recently taken on a different approach to my workouts and included some weight lifting and I have some questions. I'm looking for some professional advice here, as I want to make sure I am burning fat and gaining muscle.

1. Do I still stick to the 1200 calories a day that I have been recommended by MyFitnessPal
2. What percentages of fat, carbs and protein work best for melting away fat
3. How should I be scheduling my week in terms of workouts and which muscles work best together? E.g Monday: Arms and Back, Tuesday: Legs

Any and all help would be greatly appreciated!

1) depends whether 1200 is an appropriate goal for you? what are your stats?
2) MFP macros are fine, treat fat and protein as minimums.
3) use an actual lifting programme:
