Welcome.
40-30-30 is a common macro split. I find it difficult to get the protein. When I’m really trying to cut I’ll supplement with protein powder to meet the protein percentage.
Take care

I am trying to do the 40/30/30 also. I'm such a carb eater, that I find it challenging to get all the protein I need without the carbs. Good luck!0

I suggest clear whey. It's a glass of lemonade or "kool-aid" style drink instead of a thick protein shake. I have found it easy to drink throughout the day and it keeps me from feeling hungry. It has been immensely helpful in meeting my 40/30/30.2

I personally don't use the MFP calculator but use a TDEE (total daily energy expenditure, includes all exercise) subtract about 200-300 cals and there is my deficit.
I also don't use %.. I don't really track either but it's about 130-160g protein, 75-100g fats, rest carbs (usually around 300-400g)
