    Every where I read it suggest a ratio of 40g of protein/30g of carbs/30g of fat. Or at the least 50/25/25. That meal plan puts me at 2500 calories?

    Macros have no meaning unless you're first calculated your maintenance calories.

    The number of meals you eat per day doesn't really effect the way you look.

    The way you look is mostly influenced by net calories and your level of physical activity.

    I need some info in order to approximate your tree.

    What are your stats?

    How active are you during an average day?

    Guys, I apologize for my ignorance. I'm not a newbie to lifting weights but I don't have a clue about counting calories. I wrestled growing up and so I've cut a lot of weight but all I had to do then was cut sodas and junk food and couple months later I was banging on 5% bf. Anyway thanks for dropping some knowledge on me. My stats are...
    -30yrs old
    -5'9"
    -225 lbs
    - probably 25-30% bf
    - lift 6 days a week
    - I sit at a desk for maybe half the day and on my feet walking for the other half.

    I'm so new to this I'm not even sure that's the stats you need?
