There are three macronutrients of which you are to consume. They are proteins, fats, and carbohydrates. You should strive for a consumption of roughly 2 grams of protein per pound of bodyweight. Using the 25 calorie per pound total calorie rule, this will work out to 32% of your calories coming in the form of protein. Carbohydrates should constitute 40% of your total calories and fats the remaining 28%.

Daily Calories: 140 lbs x 25 = 3500 calories per day consumed

Protein: 140 lbs x 2 = 280 grams per day.

Carbs: 140 x 2.5 = 350 grams (= 1400 cals, 40%)

Fats: Say 75 - 100 grams per day
