How much Fat, Carb, and Protein should a normal adult take in?

[Deathwish]

How many grams of f/c/p should an adult that does not weight lift take in everyday? Say for someone weighing 150 lbs. Also what should be reduced to lose weight?

[Spartacus]

you should reduce the "that does not weight lift" bit

the food and drug administration RDA for a person on a 2000 cal diet is <65g Fat 300g Carbohydrate 54g Protein and on the 2500 cal diet <80g Fat 350g Carbohydrate 95g Protein
The general diet guidelines state rda of 59g for a 150lb person...

cutting = 12xbw calories (approx)

actual you have to calculate BMR+Activity then subtract 500-600 for one pound a week and 1200ish for 2 pounds a week..

the 12x rule pretty much applies well...
