I (M17) am currently 290 6’2 (used to be about 300) and have been lifting weights with a program at my highschool, its been really great for my muscle development and confidence, just recently I noticed I lost about ten pounds doing just that so far. I have decided to attempt a calorie deficit to start to lose more weight and have been doing it for about a week now. While I haven’t seen any downside yet I’m worried cutting calories this much will prevent me from still gaining muscle. What types of foods should I be eating before or after weightlifting that are low calorie but also enough to allow me to gain muscle. I don’t know much so I’m not sure if theres an obvious answer or not. I have considered something like a protein bar before workouts to give me protein but stay low on calories but I don’t know if theres better options.
