Groin injury and correct nutritional adjustments

My normal workouts are a mix of lifting and HIIT. I pulled my groin skating on Sunday, so I'm not doing HIIT or any leg training while it heals up. Hopefully it won't take long, but I want to make sure I'm adjusting my nutrition correctly. I will be doing upper body lifting during this time. I am 5'11" and 205. I've been maintaining muscle while cutting fat, so I've been on a plan for that without adding back in my calories from workouts (so I don't know what I burn in those).
Any suggestions on how much I should adjust when removing those out of my workouts? I've been maintaining my weight and my bf% has been dropping while doing what I've been doing. Should I keep the protein levels what they are (1g per lb) and then lower my carbs and fat to cut back total calories a little?

Thank you for any input.
