For light people 0.5g/lbs LBM isn't very high at all.
For me that's just 50g total and well below the intake I'm feeling comfortable at. I'm getting serious problems when I go below 70g total , which happens to be exactly 0.5g/lbs BW!
That's about 30% of total energy intake when eating at maintenance. I'd rather have my fats at around 35-40% of total intake.
However that same 0.5g/lbs LBM is quite possible for brief periods of time like up to a month, provided you do 'fat' refeeds once in a while.
