    Firstly, how do you know your metabolism is screwed up? Have you recorded your body temperature upon waking and throughout the day for a week, with an in ear thermometer? lower than normal core body temperature can be an indicator of a slowed metabolism. If you are adamant that your metabolic rate has slowed, which it possibly could have. Then take 10-14 days eating at maintenance, or 10% bellow. Eat a minimum of 150g of carbs daily, this should bring all your hormones back into sync, you can then go back to a 20% deficit. If your pretty lean do this every 6 weeks or if you have allot to lose do it, every 12 weeks.

    I hope that you have peace and happiness with what you look like and who you are at any weight. Being healthy should be your goal and if it is REALLY true that you can eat any amount and not gain or lose weight, why wouldn't you eat 1800 - 2000 calories with exercise? You will feel great! Maybe you could work up to it. Good Luck!
