I've been way off on my eating for about 2-3 months. Very very little cardio and lifting once a week still. But I have been eating whatever I want, whenever I want. I have been exceeding my TDEE because I have gained 8-10 pounds. SO I am thinking that I can count these past 2-3 months as a metabolism reset and restart TDEE minus 15-20%? Does that seem ok? I am adding back in my cardio and keeping up my weight lifting.
