    I think you should consider a smaller deficit--you dont have much weight to lose (if any). What if the extra 240 calories each day was a 'treat' so you dont feel deprived? I also think that the days that you're going over your TDEE are telling you something--maybe that you need more calories, or less dieting. Dieting can trigger ED habits. If restriction, etc, is causing you to think about bingeing, better off eating more. And if you're seeing a therapist maybe they can help you figure out whether what you're feeling is psychological, physiological or both.
