Hello! I usually keep the deficit if I'm trying to lose weight. Hope this helps0

Totally depends on your goal. Beautiful smile, btw0

I'm in weight loss mode, so I try to keep the deficit but I don't stress if I dip into it a little because stress is a fat-fighting buzzkill and counterproductive to weight loss. Once you're in maintenance, then you can use the extra calories...hopefully in a smart way. Have fun!0
