re: Best Way to Cut Weight?

Use a BMR calculator online. They don’t all give the exact same number of calories so use a few of them and take the average or mean to start out.
Eat under that amount. Do not try and factor in how much you think you are burning with workouts to get under maintenance. Eat under the amount (few hundred calories or so) and track weight. Weigh yourself under the exact same conditions each time. I do it in the morning before consuming anything even water. Just the easiest time imo to replicate the conditions that way. You will have to adjust calories after 1-2 weeks after getting feedback from the scale. Don’t adjust calories during the first or perhaps even 2nd week.
Also I don’t recommend weighing every day unless you are strong enough to realize things will fluctuate. If you weigh yourself each day take the mean at the end of the week. Do that again the next week and so on to see where the trend is going. Losing roughly 1 pound a week is normal and healthy
