With nutrition, it can be really easy to get lost in the details. In general healthy people who have a goal of continuing to live a healthy life are more about the big picture. When we are deciding on meals, I don't recommend getting out a kitchen scale and calculator. But I do recommend thinking about carbs, protein, fruits and veggies.
