Protein should be .7 grams per pound of LEAN BODY MASS, per day. Don't go much over that unless you want to get fat.0

Outside of noob gains, the likelihood of doing both concurrently is not very high. But generally a small deficit 10% under tdee, 1g of protein per lb of lean body mass (~.ig per lb of weight ), .35g of fats and the remainder carbs. Also, you should have a solid progressive lifting program.0

Why is your calorie goal at 1320? That's way too low for the purposes you state here. Honestly, that's going to cost you more muscle than you would like.0
-
If I was you I would raise my calories to a minimum of 2000 your TDEE is more than likely above that then workout to burn the calories needed build muscle via muscle Memory if you were in great muscle shape before should come back nicely.. Like stated above get your Protein up to .8 times desired body weight.0

I doubt you'll build much on 1320. Best of luck to you.0 -

You lost 28 lb in two months eating 1800?
I'm asking for clarity sake, so that the suggestions for you are appropriate.
Also, how did you determine you were eating 1800? How much more are you looking to lose?0 -
I was eating 1500 cals and working out hard with the weights as well as a lot of long heavy work at work for 12 hours a day,ive recently emptied out 2 massive work shopping with thousand of car parts in as well as all the heavy working equiptment,and moveing hundred of wheels and tyres ,every thing done by hand from units to van and the move to new premises and unloaded again.so I killed myself for 2 months .0

this week ive gone from 12stone 03 to 11stone 130

With aggressive weight loss, you will not gain muscle. In fact, the higher the deficit and the more lean you get, the harder it will be to be able to maintain muscle. As you get more lean, your body will need more calories. And generally, when you get closer to your goal, you should be increasing calories, decreasing the deficit and continuously increase your weights.0

I sent you some links for additional reading that should help you decide this. Each person is going to be individual based on goals, exercise habits, height, weight, etc.
Alternatively, what does MFP give you when you do the program setup? It should have asked a bunch of questions when you started and given you a goal number. That number is without exercise calories.0 -

yes the number I got was 1320,but people are saying its to low,so ive moved it to 1500.0 -
Yeah, 1320 is too low for a guy. I know the MFP default bottom for women in 1200. I thought it was 1500 for men. Maybe not though. Did you enter 2lb/week loss? What activity level did you enter? How much more do you want to lose? If that list of activities you made above is typical of your daily activity you should be on a higher activity setting, not on sedentary. Those things can make a big difference.0
