TDEE adjustment?

fellow TDEE peeps...

I need your advice... I have been working out much more in the past 3 weeks than before. About 5x's/ wk and -1500 cal/wk.

Scooby's calculator with moderate exercise (3-5 hrs) - 20% has me eating 1864/day. And if I choose light exercise (1-3hrs) - 20% it has me eating 1654. So I was taking an average of both because I am working out around 3.5hrs / wk. I set my goal for 1750. But this week, I only lost 0.2 lbs.

I weigh/measure everything and use a HRM for workouts. So my tracking is correct.

Do I just wait and see what happens next week or adjust something?

    Drop it by 50-100 calories if you're not losing quickly enough. Just make sure to hit protein, fat, and fiber minimums err day
