I'll be posting a revised diet today following closely the 40/40/20 split, and then hopefully I can get help from there (NARK!!!).

Wow, if 1300 calories is my TDEE, i'm SCREWED! That's enough food for a mouse! Would you suggest I stay at 2200 to 'retrain' my body for higher calories? I barely have muscle to begin with; I do NOT want to lose ANY lean mass, I cannot afford it!
