for a woman, 0.6 grams per kg of ibw...sound scary? not really, just grab a calculator and jump in...
first, take your height in inches (cm / 2.5 = in)
now:
if it is less than 60 (5 feet) use 105 lbs
if not, subtract 60 from it, multiply the remaining inches by 5, and add that to 105. this is your ideal body weight (in lbs)
now... the metric stuff...divide your ideal body weight by 2.2 ... there, see? you weigh less already! this is your IBW in kilograms.
now...multiply THAT by 0.6 and...voila! that's how many grams of protein you should aim for!
No matter how many calories you restrict your meals to, eating enough protein is important to keep from losing muscle instead of fat. It also helps you to feel more full
