My cutting diet plan

[Squattage]

I realize this is probably terrible and I am just looking for any feedback. This is my first try at a diet plan. I am 205 lbs and I'd guess anywhere from 14-20% BF.

My diet plan is 28% fat, 26% carbs, 46% protein at 2099 calories per day. I believe my maintence level is about 3000.

I'm already going to be subbing in chicken or a different type of meat for one of the tuna meals. And the non-fat milk and whey will be blended together. Other than that, how does this look?

Cals seem a little low if maintenance is 3000. UPPPP the fats!

[Taliesin]

make sure you drop your cals slowly by 200-500 a day from what you are doing now

A day? Umm, no. Maybe 200 calories per WEEK but not a day.

same goes for you.

[Bako Lifter]

same goes for you.

Dropping cals from 2,000 to 1,800 a day would be bad? I'm not disagreeing, I just didn't know that.

[Unholy]

Yea 200-500 cals a day is ridiculous. The OP is over 200lbs with a maintenance of about 3000 calories, he's already in a 1k/day deficit dropping 200-500 a day would have him at next to nothing after a few days. This is a marathon not a race. Once people understand that they will be much happier with their results.

Ahhh, good to know. I just thought it would be like the opposite of bulking. Instead of adding 200, subtract 200.

But you're taking this guy as a normal person right? Not a hard core body builder like you?

[Unholy]

I'm just a normal person. He should not be in more then a 1k/day deficit, even that is a bit extreme right off the bat.
