it depends on your 'bodytype'

a endormorph might eat 1.5 grams per lb lbw protein + 1.5 grams per lb lbw carbs + 1 grams per lb lbw fats

while an ectomorph might eat 2 grams per lb lbw protein + 4 grams per lb lbw carbs + 1.5 grams per lb lbw fats


and everythin in between





so you gotta give more information. whats your body type, your metabolism, how do you handle carbs, whats your body weight and body fat %, how tall are you, are you looking to get cut up or to gain mass ?? ??
