I dunno man...

You're only consuming 2410 calories, which when divided by 15 says your weight is only 160 lbs.

You're burning 740 calories.

This means your body can only "use" 1670 calories. Assuming your lean body mass is 160 pounds, 2410 calories is what you need to STAY at your current weight.

To lose (weight), subtract 500 calories. Gain, add 500.

Only consuming 1670 calories means your body will resort to eating muscle for fuel (catabolism).

Now maybe you're not a bodybuilder, but still 160 pounds is kind of light/skinny (depending on height).

I'd either lose the activity and save it for plateaus, or go ahead and keep the activities but bump the calories you consume.

Also, I'd knock out the popsicles, bologna, and MAYBE the sushi. If you need something to keep you sane on your diet, keep the sushi and maybe go for a dextrose-infused chocolate protein shake (2 teaspoons or 15 grams).

Let us know how it goes!
