Of course it varied some but that has to be over 3k calories.
I'm basically basing it off the fact that my roommate is 200lbs and for a while I was eating almost as much as him. I don't know for sure how accurate my estimation is since I don't track it. Also for a while I was at like 11% bf, lately I'm at more like 12-13%
Hard to say based on this information, but it actually sounds like you're under-eating. Try tracking for a week or two, it should be easy with this diet and you may be surprised.
Guessing based on the high end of your summary:
eggs - 350cal
bread - 200
PB&J - 900
smoothie - 500
subway - 650
dinner - 650
Would be just a hair over 3k. If you're skipping the one of the sandwiches or skimping or PB this number goes way down.

What's your stance width like? Looks super narrow there, though it could just be the angle.
It does drift a bit which I need to improve for heavy weights. Partly because its uncomfortable when it 'scrapes' if I'm too close, and partly because my back is much stronger than legs so I tend to rely on those muscles.
DL doesn't bother my shoulder at all.
Chest should be higher but this is my max thoracic extension
I've been lying down on a roller for a few minutes every day to work on it.
My stance is super narrow, prob 3.5 inches between the heels, although the video makes it look worse. It know thats probably shocking to all the cool sumo pullers these days but it feels right to me
