I am only almost sure about one thing. A man with the level of strength you have and with weight and height, consuming 1700 calories and losing only one pound a week…. Shows that something is wrong with your calculation.
I am 51 years old, less strong, shorter, lighter, leaner (~16% bf) and losing 2 pounds a week with a higher than 2000 Calories diet. I don’t know how high because I go to a dietitian and she calculated, I did not ask, am just looking the amount of food I am eating, I would estimate it is around 2200 Calories.
If some body corrects me I am more than happy. And I can ask my calorie count to my dietitian in two weeks if you want.
You might be eating sth that you don’t know how high it is calories. It might be innocent looking nuts, or innocent looking anything that has a high level of fat or sugar.
