At the very least, you will probably need that higher at first, until your body adapts to burning your stored fat. Keto eating is a good way to train your body to use its own fat.

To begin with, I think it is better to just keep carbs 20 gram or less, protein moderate, and fat to satiety. You can adjust these as you progress, based on your own results. Some can eat slightly higher carbs, others need more protein, you have to find what works for you.

I personally started out on the Atkins 20 Foodie meal plan, it was very helpful to me. You might want to check that out, it is geared to those who cook there own foods most of the time. I did not use the bars nor the shakes, you can find plenty of good replacements for those. I don't do well with sugar alcohols, so after one of their bars, I found alternatives.

What should my macros look like? I read one post that said my fat should be at 50% of my calories; is that true?

Is ketosis your goal and if so why? Weight loss? Diabetes? Other medical issue? Or are you wanting to eat low carb and not necessarily keto?

I lost my excess weight via low carb. I ate keto for a year for a medical reason. I currently eat low carb. Higher carb perhaps than what might have my body in a constant state of therapeutic ketosis. Lower carb than what I ate for weight loss.
