What should my macros be for weight?

Your perfect macros can depend on your individual goals, activity level, age, health, genetics, and much more. For weight loss purposes, a moderate-fat (20% to 30% of calories), moderate carb (30% to 40% of calories), and a high protein diet (25% to 35% of calories) tend to work for most people.
