Calorie Deficit - Weight Loss

Hi,

Been a while since I've been here and I generally know what to do in order to lose weight (in that I've read the stickies and keep up with relevant threads here).

One question I had is regarding the daily/weekly calorie deficit in order to reach my goal: steady 0.5kg/1lbs per week weight loss.

I'm 6'3/1m91 and weigh roughly 140kg/300lbs. I've had good progress 1.5 years ago eating 2.400 kcals per day of which 80g fat minimum and 180g protein minimum.

Since I'm way overweight, I can probably go for a deeper deficit at first I reckon. I can eat down to 2.000-2.100 per day without jeopardizing my ability to stay consistent.

-> Is this correct?

A secondary thought I had is that I should probably bump up my protein a bit more. 1.5 years ago I found I could consistently eat about 180g per day from natural protein sources without changing my eating pattern to something I wouldn't be able to sustain/or something I dislike.

Thanks.
