cutting calories by how much?

[Jasieol]

Stats are 44 years old.
240 pounds and around 25% body fat
I’m looking to lose some body fat and lose some weight
what is going to be the best option I’m currently doing about 3,000 calories per day, should I cut it back by 500 calories or go for more?

You can also reduce portion sizes. Increase your intake of heart-healthy vegetables, try one meatless meal per week, and pair your meals with whole grains like brown rice or quinoa to increase your fiber intake. Make sure to drink plenty of water throughout the day to stay hydrated.
