IIFYM / Macro Calculations

I looked through like 5 pages in the search and didn't find out what I was looking for so I figured I'd post it here.
I am looking to try out IIFYM (join the dark side) and I'm not sure exactly how to calculate my macros, and what to aim for...unless MFP already calculates it for you. I am not sure what it means exactly aside from eating foods as long as they fit into your daily macronutrient intake.
Any info would be much appreciated.
