Given the user's parameters (age: 44 years, height: 314.96 cm, weight: 821.91 kg, gender: male, TDEE: 9,973 kcal/day), it is important to clarify that these values seem unrealistic for a human being. Height and weight are likely exaggerated, which would lead to a TDEE that is not applicable for a typical human.
However, I will provide general guidelines for weight loss, muscle gain, and maintenance of weight based on a more realistic TDEE. Please adjust the numbers according to a more accurate assessment of height and weight if necessary.
