I’m 5 feet 7 inches tall, 42 years old, male, and weigh 157.
Great, how may I assist you with your nutrition and health?
I currently only consume about 5 grams of fat and 500 calories Monday through Thursday. I then eat whatever I want on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. I often drink lots of beer on Saturday. I walk about 2 miles per day Monday thru Friday and about 6 miles on Saturday and Sunday. This allows me to essentially maintain the 157 pounds. However, I want to lose weight and get to 145 lbs. What is your recommendation for losing 10 pounds?
Thank you for sharing your current eating and exercise habits. Based on the information you provided, I would recommend a few changes to help you lose weight in a safe and sustainable way.

To lose weight, you need to create a calorie deficit by consuming fewer calories than you burn. A safe and sustainable rate of weight loss is about 1-2 pounds per week. This can be achieved by reducing your daily calorie intake by 500-1000 calories.
Here are some recommendations for you:
By making these changes, you can create a calorie deficit and start losing weight in a safe and sustainable way. Remember to consult with a healthcare professional before making any significant changes to your diet or exercise routine.
