Confused about macros

30f and I’m very active and trying to lose fat. I aim to lose 8 kilos by the end of may and I have started measuring for the first time. Quinoa macros states 50g serving is 188 calories and 6.1g protein. When I cook it, it’s close to 285 grams.. am I supposed to take that much? And textured vegetable protein, the label states 50g has 26.7 grams protein, I just take this as dry weight and cook it in salt water.. does this sound right?

Can you also tell me how many grams of oats I can consume in the morning?

73 kilos and I aim at being 60 kilos by the end of this year!
