It all depends on your tdee, ur ratio, when u workout, how your working out, and diet strategy.

It does help, but u, not me

Have u read the stickies in this forum?
First you should figure out your tdee (total daily energy expenditure), u have all the info already.

You can post a picture, full frontal relaxed showing legs, and also ur back to get opinions on body fat.

After u figure out your tdee, you can begin to portion out ur macros. I'd suggest a 40/40/20 split to begin with. Meaning 40% of ur calories will come from protein, 40% carbs, and 20% fat.

We can start there.
