Keep weightlifting going paired with some form of cardio (steps, stairmaster, incline treadmill, etc…),and a diet that has you at a moderate caloric deficit (400-800 cals). Also make sure to eat between 0.8-1.0 grams of protein per pound of goal bodyweight

Thank you so much!! Also for the calorie deficit is that how much I should eat in a day or do I subtract my calories burned from the total I eat?

Subtract the deficit from your maintenance cals to determine how many you should eat daily
