Is This Bad?

I usually do 4-4.5 hours /week of cardio and eat at my TDEE-20, but this week I just did 1.5 hours of cardio and still ate at my tdee-20 this whole week.

Do you think I kind of messed up somehow with the weight loss..since I still ate at my tdee-20 which is calculated with the exercise included?

p.s. posted this earlier in the wrong section.

    I read it as "per week".

    Do you log your exercise or did you use the activity multiplier? If you use the multiplier you ate too much.
