    I follow TDEE approach so no I don't eat mine back.

    I either eat half of it back or enough of it back so I don't go under 1200 calories per day

    That's great never thought of it that way!

    No. I don't use MFP calorie recommendations. They are both low & high for me.

    I use a couple different, but similar formulas that include my activity level to determine calories. I eat in that range every day. I log my cardio to have a record that I did it but I change the calories burned count to 1. I get more calories to eat every day & get better results.
