Tips for dieting with a sweet tooth

Guys I started training calisthenics two weeks ago because I think it's really fun, but I have horrible eating habits and I think this might get in the way of my progress. I looked into dieting and learned a little bit, but I would really appreciate some tips and even recipes if possible.

For context: I'm a very picky eater and with exception of lunch and dinner I only eat sweet things. I guess there might be some recipes I'll like enough to change that but I haven't found it yet. Also I looked up the calories on the things I usually eat and I don't eat enough protein as it is recommended.

Also I love baking is there a way for me to balance dieting and eating the stuff I bake or is it not possible? I'm so lost

Digital Kitchen Assistant App To Conquer Fitmeals!

Tip

Hi all! I last posted here about a month ago and given the level of interest I figured I'd continue to put out the good word!
My friends and I are building an app called Budgeat that might be helpful for members of this community. We’ve all found that meal planning has really helped us eat better and save money. After using several recipe sourcing, grocery shopping, inventory / pantry management, and meal planning apps we realized that all the apps out there seem to only do part of the job.
Our goal is to generate personalized meal plans that consider your budgetary, dietary, taste, and cooking preferences, track and incorporate ingredients you have on hand to minimize waste, and generate easy to use grocery lists that don’t break the bank.
Check us out at www.budgeat.app and if you’re interested download the app to give us a try! We're still early in our journey so just having more people try the app and provide feedback is immensely helpful. The app is currently only available in the U.S., but we're aiming to expand coverage in the not-too-distant future.

Calorie intakes and deduction?

Question

Calorie intake, deductions?

I have began to use MyFitnessPal to help track calorie, protein, etc intake.

According to my Fitbit I will burn ~1500-2000cals a day without seeing the inside of a gym. And with my 3 meal per day+snack I am consuming somewhere in the ballpark of 2500-3000cals a day.

So, I'm pretty new to this, if I'm eating ~2800cals a day, and burning ~2000 without exercise, does this mean I'm operating at a 800 calorie surplus? Is this enough to gain some weight and lean muscle?

If so, is that enough? (On my other post I mentioned I'm 5'6, 130lbs, 22, male). Up until recently I was doing a good bit of cardio (10k steps per day, some light weight training, pushups, etc).

I hear all this stuff about TDEE, BMR, etc. It's all very confusing. So forgive the newb questions.

ALSO – Is my necessary calorie intake (ex. 2800cals per day) deducted from how many I burn per day, or is 2800 the number to eat, even if I burn 2000? Thus, working at 800 surplus calories.

FTR: I'm trying to eat 2800cals per day, and 100grams of protein.

Necessary protein intake?

Question

I'm 22, male, 5'6, 130lbs. Looking to add on some lean muscle. I'm getting all sorts of varying answers as to how much protein I need to consume. From everything as low as 46grams and up to 216grams.

Any advice/answers? Thanks.
