IIFYM beginner

Hey guys
I'm on day 3 of IIFYM.. I have heard a lot about this lifestyle and thought this is a great fit for me . I entered in all of my info into a calculator and came up with 108g protein 250 carbs 47g of fat..
I'm 5'7 ..135lbs ... I'm not too worried about what the scale says because my goal is to tone and get some muscle .. obviously burn the fat I do have as well.
I find most days I hit my protein easy as go over by 20 or 30 g... fat is also easy to hit but my carbs are lacking I'm usually 50g below my goal..
Is it a bug deal if I'm going over on protein ? I'm trying my hardest to meet my numbers and stay within 5 of each ..I'm sure I'll get better at it as time goes on.
Anyone have any tips or any insight if I have the right macros or anything else ..I'm wanting to learn as much as I can
Thanks !!
