    A healthy weight for you is around 11-12 stone based on your height.

    Based on your activity levels, to lose around 1-2kg per week you would want to be eating 2300-2500 calories.

    Aye but I want to continue to lift and gain muscle. So 11 stone is too low for me . Think 12 is possible tbh. That seems a lot of calories doesnt it? Considering its like 2500. Day to maintain for the average male isn't it? Sorry really grateful for reply just wondering :)

    I'm not exactly sure how to convert "stone" to lbs so I'm going to offer you this great website which has a calculator to help you out! It tells you exactly how much to eat based on your stats. This can calculate based on either pounds or kilos so that should help. Good luck to you!
