Would I lose weight if I made this dietary change details here?

Question

So I live in Canada and Canada’s food guide says that

50% of your diet should be fruits or veggies
25% should be whole low glycemic grain
25% should be protein through meat or dairy or nuts or soy products

In my Chinese family

30% of our food is fruits and veggies
50% is high glycemic grain
10% is protein through meat or nuts or dairy or soy products like tofu

Should I eat Canada’s food guide to lose weight? Will it help?

Why so low on protein ! Protein is your friend. It is the only macro nutrient that build and maintain tissue. It can also be used for energy if needed!. Also every vitamin and mineral your body needs is in most protein sources. It is the most complete food source. Carbohydrates are BAD it converts only to sugar to be used for energy I. e glucose. Any energy or carbs not burned off is stored to fat and restricts ability to burn fat stores on your body. High carbohydrate diets lead to obesity , heart disease , diabetes the list goes on.

pick up the protein , put down the carbs. Fats is good. Carbohydrates is the enemy.

To be honest protein should be wayyyy higher if you want to live healthy life and it is extremely effective to cut down on fat stores.

It sounds like something to try but I'd consider checking with a dietitian or someone that's more familiar with diets like that
