Hey guys, I'm new to lifting, as of last week actually and I've went out of my way and bought myself a plan from the guy on youtube called Fitness With TJ (Its a 4 day upper/legs/full body split
I'm 17 in March, 6'4 and around 82-83 kg so around 13 Stone. I can eat basically whatever i want and my body will stay at this weight but I'm really not happy with this skinny fat physique. I've cut out all junk foods, ive been sticking to a lot of tuna, salad, chicken and only water.
He said I should eat 2300 calories minimum a day and I'm currently eating way under that but I'm kind of clueless. I do want to put on muscle but I just want to get my abs showing. I know i need to build up my chest and shoulders too.
Also, I have very wide hips which I cant do much about and im not really "genetically gifted"
I'd really appreciate any input whatsoever from more experienced people or people who have transformed from something similar.

You need muscle. Don't even think about going for visible abs at this point, you'd just be a super scrawny stick figure if you tried to cut down
Probably should have checked here before spending money on a program
Eat at maintenance at least if not a small surplus, get stronger, and you'll also get more muscle and a better shape

Heavy compound lifts and start constantly stuffing your face.
Supplement a good diet: don't diet on supplements.
