the calories seem good. if you do end up feeling hungry because you're eating less calories, i recommend upping protein. should keep you full for longer. workout benefits depends on what you do. i find lifting helps more BUT if you want to do cardio and find you have joint/ankle pain, stick to walking for a while. if you are comfortable running, do just a light jog that you can maintain the whole time. i've found, for me, that overall speed doesnt offer as much as maintained workouts/endurance.
