Calories sound too low for your size
You are also eating FAR too little fat
You should be at .4-.5g/lb--> 72-90grams per day
You are only in the low 30s
If I were you I would up to 200+g protein, 75+g fat, 2000 calories.
Make sure you are doing plenty of compounds lifts to strengthen your core and ab exercises for definition.Founder of MMDELAD
