Regarding proteins ... excess protein is unhealthy (e.g. carcinogenic). You need about one-half gram of protein per pound of lean body mass; maybe 25% more If you're aggressively exercising, or pregnant.

I misread this part the first time. But now I re-read it - 25% more for exercise, it makes sense! Not inaccurate, but it specifies minimums.

Healthy fats should bring the most caloric contribution to one's daily healthy diet.
To lose weight you have to have a caloric deficit. To have a healthy lifestyle is a little more complicated, and includes maintaining a lean body composition and a normal weight. Being a plus size is unhealthy.
