I recently decided to do fitness and diet more seriously.I am a male 31 years old - 183 cm - 77 Kg I don't know my body fat but since the confinement, I gained 4 Kg and no exercise during this period ^^ I would like to calculate my daily calorie and macronutrient ratio
For daily calorie I try some simulator for loosing 0,5 Kg per week with a goal at 73 Kg, the result is 1650 cal/day.
For my macronutrient I would like to start with :
- Protein: 15% ( 108 gram daily )
- Fat: 44 %
- Carb: 41 %
But I have also 4 sessions Workout
- Tuesday - 90 min - Weight workout - Chest/tricep/shoulder ( push )
- Wednesday - 90 min - Weight workout - Legs
- Friday - 90 min - Weight workout -Back / Arms ( pull )
- Sunday - 90 min - cardio and abs
I think 1650 is not enough... I'm considering starting from 2000 or 2200 but I don't how to integrate my workout on my calorie count. Any advice is welcome

Your bmi is 22.9 which is perfectly within normal. Maybe focus on fitness/recomp instead of weightloss?2

Also, are you logging calories burned from your exercises? MFP is designed for you to eat those back thus raising your daily food “budget”.1
