Protein Intake (I searched)

I'm trying to tighten up on my protein intake, but honestly I'm a pretty big guy and the recommended intake of 1g per pound of body weight would have me taking in about 235g/day. The problem isn't getting the protein but my concern is that if I stick to that intake my macro-nutrient ratio would be skewed at about 40% protein. I guess my QUESTION is whether or not that macro-nutrient difference is better than not getting enough protein? I was thinking about a 40c/40p/20f ratio.

Just FYI I'm going for weight loss of about 50 pounds the healthy way and exercising about 3 times/week taking in about 2300 calories a day.

Also, I'm going from a low protein diet to a very high (in comparison) protein diet, should I expect anything different physically?

Thanks!
