Is it ok for a 5'11" 480lb male to go on a 1600 calorie per day diet. meals are from a delivery service so will be balanced nutritionally?

I think it is great: That you are taking this step! that being said, without knowing more about your medical history or medications, its difficult to say whether or not it would be safe. In an ideal world, where you have no other health problems, this seems like a good idea. However, this should be done under the care of a physician to be safe.
