Is this macro calculation correct/beneficial?

I have read through the wiki and am helping design a plan for a family member who is looking to lose weight - F / 60 YO/ 5'5 / 154.2 lbs /. Since it is weight loss she should be eating in a calorie deficit (aiming 20% reduction of normal TDEE). After using TDEE which calculated 1,524 a day, I reduced by 20% for 1,219 calories a day. She would like to do low carb so 40 fat/40 protein/20 carb.

Here is my math if anyone could confirm this ration (40/40/20) would be helpful and if the grams are correctly calculated.

Goal: 1219 CALORIES

40% = 487.6

40% = 487.6

20% = 243.8

PROTEIN- 121.9 ~ 122 g

FATS- 54.17 ~ 54 g

CARBS- 60.95 ~ 61 g

​

Thank you in advanced!
