Protein macros for woman losing weight?

Hi all,

I am new -- did Weight Watchers for a year. It was good-- it focuses on high protein, high fiber foods.

Now I am here because I want to focus more on getting lean and my nutrition. Two questions:

What percentage of my cals would you all recommend for a woman? Stats: (late 20s) lifting 3-5x a week, doing cardio 2-3x. Weight is 144. Goal is to lose 5 lbs (initially). The app tells me I need about 1300 cals a day but lists a low percentage for daily protein and I think it should be higher.

Also, do you count calories on fruit and veg? These were "free" on WW to encourage eating them and I really like that... maybe just count fruit?
