Diet for a girl

[SeanC1123]

This friend came to me and wanted me to help her with a diet but honestly I have no clue. I've helped girls that are smaller before without a problem but this girl is tall and weights a good amount and I'm not sure where to start with her lol. So if any of you can help me out, please do.

She's 5'11'' and weighs about 162 pounds and wants to shed about 15-20 pounds. I've helped her with a workout regiment so far so she is OK there but what kind of a sample diet should I be writing up for her so she can lose this weight? Any help appreciated--

Thanks

I was going to post the info KR gave to my sister but then thought he might give different advice. I will tell him about this post later.

theres lot of variable, but...

you could start her at:
150g protein
125 g carb
40 g fat

this should be in her ball park., but her BF% and training experience has alot to do with what kind of program to start her on.

20- 40 mins cardio 4 times per week
weight training 4 time per week.

again this is just a guess-- but it should start the ball rolling for her to lose fat and gain muscle.

It's difficult to say without having some idea of baseline caloric intake. I suggest she take the next few days and write down every thing she eats. Then calculate the total calories and breakdown of nutrients, start by reducing calories by 300-350 per day, keeping protein about 50% crbs 30% fats 20%.
Yes its alot of homework but if someone is serious they will be willing to do it.

God, I just reread my post and I must get terribly dead in the brain late at night while working. In the future, if you mods could keep an eye on things like this, it would be appreciated.

I suppose the 2 minutes I spent typing the diet could have been spent on something a little more constructive. Hey, I get bogged down and need a break for a couple minutes, okay?
