... calories, changed my diet, and started lifting weights. My diet consists of 3000+ calories, 135+ grams of protein. Eggs, chicken, beef, sweet potatoes, olive oil, green vegetables, peanut butter, trail mix, tuna, shrimp, avocado, brown rice, power bars, and protein mix. I'm also taking creatine with my workouts. I lift 3 to 4 times a week for about 45 minutes. I'm doing 2 exercises per muscle, 4 sets; 10,8,6,4. 3 muscles per day. Is there anything else I should be doing? Or should I expect this to work? My goal is 150, and if I ever did get there, the new goal would be 165

Be careful that this doesn't become something unattainable. Many of those with eating disorders have a goal weight which is fifteen pounds lighter than whatever their current weight is (no matter what they weigh). Something about you saying your goal way would shift made me prick up my ears.
Let me change the end to the question. My goal weight is 165, yet, seeing that I have had such a difficult time making progress I will be happy with a more realistic goal of 150.
Goal "weight" not "way". I had a brain-fart, there!
