That is NOT enough protein or calories to lose bodyfat, you will end up losing muscle and making your metabolism slow down.

I'm in a precontest diet and as a female also I'm taking in more food than that...

I'm 5'4, 145 lbs about 11% bf and taking in:
257g protein
138g carbs
17-20g fat

You need some carbs bc your muscles will need then even while dieting. As for protein that needs to be upped big time also, you could easily be going around 2g of protein per lb of weight... Just up how much cardio you're doing. Are you doing any??? Are you prepping for a show?
