A strategic approach, including reverse dieting and adjusting caloric intake, is essential for achieving sustainable weight loss.In this clip

I'm reverse dieting from 1800 calories to 3,400 calories. Right now, I'm at 2500 calories and shooting for 2600 next week. I've been eating 200 g of protein. I weigh 230 lb at 30% body fat, and I want to drop my weight to 200 lb and my body fat to at least 20%. My goals with the reverse diet are building muscle and fat loss. Should I eat 230 g of protein or continue eating 200 g of protein?
I'm a 45-year-old male, 221.2 lbs, and 20% body fat. My goal is to reach 180-185 lbs and 13-15% body fat. I've been reverse dieting for 2 months and am currently eating 2800 calories, up from 2400 calories, with 180-200 grams of protein. I'm strength training 4 days a week and walking 8-10k steps a day. My weight is staying the same, but I'm getting stronger. When should I start to lean down or start cutting calories?
Am I on the right track if I'm doing a reverse diet from 2800 calories to 3300 calories, currently at 2900 calories, have lost 2 pounds while my muscles look more defined, and plan to keep bumping calories by 100 until I hit 3300 calories, then cut back 100 calories every three weeks to make my new maintenance level 3000 calories?
