I have been reading around and have not found my answer so I thought I would ask as I am curious why cut out the 15%?

    When you want to lose weight you want a small deficit as opposed to huge deficits that can take you below your BMR. TDEE is your maintenance calories, so to lose weight nice and slow you would eat 15% less than your TDEE.
