Calories determine weight loss/gain, macros (like carbs) can affect satiety and compliance. Choose a way of eating that makes it easier for you to stick to your calorie goal, for some that's low carb and for others not so much.
These might help too:

I wouldn't build my weightloss regimen around a gene that everyone has. There are different types as I understand it, but that and $.25 won't get you a cup of coffee.
Follow the links kimny72 posted, get the app set up properly and get a food scale.
