180, 200, 60
3) Do you use a food scale and measure everything?
yes
4) Do you track all of your intake, daily? (Everything?)
yes

not really. I don't really restrict what i eat.
6) How much weight have you lost so far?
13 lbs since December 2012
7) What is your activity like, both exercise and non-exercise?
exercise wise, i do the Starting Strength basic M-W-F and 20 mins cardio for 2 days, usually on the lifting days. non-exercise, i got 3 kids.... we love to go to the park and play football... a lot.
8) How long have you eaten at your previous amount and what happened in that time frame?
2 months roughly. I just started my lifting program within the last three weeks. I was lifting since December 2012, but I really didn't know what I was doing. I want to make sure I am eating right for the amount of training I am doing.
9) What's your height, current weight and if you know it, bodyfat%?
5"7, 213, 33%
10) If you're stalled, for how long and is it a complete stall (zero change in weight)?

This looks pretty good. My only comments:
Your p/f/c in grams adds up to about 2060 if my mental math is correct.
Your fat intake could be slightly higher but it's not alarming as is.
180/200/75 p/c/f gets you to about 2200. Anywhere in the 2200-2300 range should be pretty good and your results confirm it.0 -
This sounds about right. I eat 2500 when I train, 2100 on rest days. Thank you for taking your time to respond, appreciate it.0
