Lightbulb My Diet

So.. I have been keeping track a bit.. but only with my calories and fat intake. How does this sound now:

1200 cals 50% carbs, 30% fat, 20% protein + cardio and weight training
=150g carbs, 40g of fat, 60g protein

or should I have more protein since i'm doing some weight training? Any suggestions?

ok ok... so I was researching, and it says for people to exercise regularly they need about 1.0-1.2 g of protein/kg of weight. So I weigh 165lbs/75kg. So if I were to have 1gp/1kg then I would need 75g of protein which is 25%.

So then I would have to go 50% carbs, 25% fat 25% protein
= 150g carbs, 33g fat, 75g protein...... how is that?

that sounds pretty good ... i like having lower carbs, so i'm more around 40 / 25 / 35, but that's a personal preference. I also try to stay away from using the measurement of weight-to-protein because it seems flawed that if you are 300 lbs (135 kg) that you would need that much protein ... that would be an insane amount. Instead, I go by 1g of protein for every lb of lean body weight ... which is your weight minus fat (Body Fat % - BF%).
