Eating "Clean" vs. Caloric Deficit

If your goal is to cut weight,

Is it more important to eat "Clean" (ex. no fast food) or to eat in a caloric deficit

My TDEE is around 2800 calories.

I've been eating at no more than 1700 calories per day. A deficit of around 1100 calories. However, the 1700 calories are coming from mainly fast food.

Been eating like this for 3 weeks and haven't lost a pound of weight.

Forgot to note that i'm 6'4 265lbs and between 30-35% body fat.

Eaating clean and counting calories is the best way to go. It's your health why fuck around with it like that?

>Been eating like this for 3 weeks and haven't lost a pound of weight.

you could easily be retaining 7 pounds of water weight that would act as a buffer to your loss

Should I cut carbs for a week and see if that depletes the stored water weight?

I'm also lifting heavy 2-3 times per week.

Plus 1hr walk or 30 min HIT cardio per day + 3 hr hike every weekend.

If your goal is cutting, eating clean has NOTHING to do with it.

i've been eating Pizza, Lasagna & Burgers all the time also only Toast bread
then i went on a diet with corn bread and healthier food and after about 2 weeks i lost 9kg btw my weight/height is 1,68m/61kg
i also started working out and its really paying off

Cut out al fast food and all sodas

You will NOT get the mental clarity and health from eating shitty foods with 1000 calory deficit. It's not only about the looks. It's like lifting off the fog from your brain and thoughts. I suggest cutting sugar-bread-grain and eating veggies-meat-eggs-rice-fruit-coffee etc. Try it for 2-3 days it kicks in really fast. If you dont like how you feel, you can always go back. You got nothing to lose. I think that you are man enough to stop listening to your cravings for only 3 days. TONS and TONNS of succesful-rich people are buying into this shit so there must be something about it huh? Why dont you find out?
