Ok....so I've been maintaining for at least 6 weeks now. I've been eating at TDEE for over 2 weeks that I know for sure because of tracking. Before that I am sure I was eating at or above TDEE without tracking accurately or at all on some days.
My TDEE is 2377. So I did 15% of that which is 2020.45. So I would eat that amount every day? And NOT eat back workout cals unless I dip below my BMR?
Just wanted to make sure so I am ready to go tomorrow morning.

Yes. You should eat that daily, and only eat back if you go under your BMR.

If you want to be sure of your numbers you can use the scooby site that is recommended b/c it figures in your cut for you:

I was eating above or at TDEE before without realizing it. I am still maintaining, so I think I'm just going to cut. I know this is my correct maintanance level now. We'll see how it goes.0
