Reasonable Goal?

I am trying to determine if my goals are reasonable, or if they are likely to be too difficult or unrealistic.
About me:
Height - 5'7.5
Age - 29
Current weight - 296.5
first goal - 260 by July
2nd goal - 200 by January (for my 30th birthday)
final goal - 155
This website has me eating 1690 calories a day with a 2lb/week loss and sedentary. I work in an office and sit for most of my day. I have a FitBit that I use to track and on average I get about 3000-4000 steps a day. I plan on working out more (maybe 3 times aweek?) but I have not started yet.
Any thoughts, advice or help would be very much appreciated.

I think it sounds reasonable for now. As you lose, the number of calories allotted per day will gradually decrease over time. You'll likely see higher lose rates in the beginning too which is always good for motivation.
If you find your calorie goal too tough to meet, decrease your goal to a lb a week. It'll come off slower but this is something you have to be able to sustain over time too. Good luck!0
