Around 185-200 grams a day. Before you say anything I know that's a bit to much and it's not necessary. But if I ate let's say 160 grams I then have to compensate with carbs or fat and I tend to eat alot of protein I have a hard time finding healthy sources of fat/carbs without going over my calories for the day!
Once you get the basic amount needed of the macronutrients, the rest of your calories can come from whatever macro you prefer. Even that basic amount needn't be exact every single day, close is good enough.
The whole percentage thing is an approximation, for convenient tracking.
Calories directly affect body weight. Nutrition (including macros) are for health, body composition, satiation and that sort of thing. Sub-par nutrition can *indirectly* affect weight in the long term though energy level, appetite, or body composition, of course.3
