That's about roughly 550 calories, and over 100 grams of protein. Split it into three meals and eat throughout the day. Fill out the rest of your daily foods with things you like to eat (within reason). Greek yogurt and nuts are good.
Exercise is important, but it's complimentary to your diet -- not the other way around. So don't go wearing yourself out with tons of cardio while you just wing it with the food. After being in total control of how much weight I gain or lose, I've found this one thing...the exercise is half as important as what and how much you eat. It takes a long time and lot of effort to burn 300 calories, but you can eat those 300 calories in 10 seconds.
But don't have the fit mindset for 90 days. Have it for 90 months.
