Keto Macro split

So I'm starting up keto at the end of the month, so I'm trying to get ready for it and do all my research etc.

I put the percentages into a calculator and stuff, and it gave me a split (in grams) of:
25/ 153/ 147 C/P/F

That sound accurate to you guys?
My fat and protein intake are almost identical in grams, so I don't know if that's okay or not?

    more fat than protein is more ketogenic, but that's not a bad starting point.

    There's a simple ratio F/(P+C) in grams you come out at 0.82 some would advocate 1.0 as a minimum or maybe 1.5 as desirable. Protein seems at the top end of the range.
