How are they measured on here? Grams? What?
I want to be eating 158g of Protein but MFP tells me I should only have 56, although 56 what I'm not sure!

    It is in grams. When you go to your goals and choose a percentage, to the immediate right will update reflect how many grams that would be.

    Thanks that helps! Is there a way to change my macro settings?

    Yes, go into your goal setting space, and instead of guided choose the other option. Then you can pick your percentages.
