Cycle Diet Help

[ExcalCk3]

I've posted a couple of times before, but I'm guessing I wasn't detailed enough in my post to warrant
any responses. Let me try again.

Info:
34 yrs old
5'10"
196 lbs
~12% bf
10+ yrs lifting


Current TDEE according to posted formula is ~2950
I'm running Test E at 500/wk for 12 weeks

Sample of a typical workout day 40c/40p/20f

MEAL 1
2 large whole egg
8 egg whites
1/4 cup grits
1 raisin bagel
2 tbsp spread

696cals (79c/52p/17f)


MEAL 2 Pre WO
4oz 94% lean beef
1/2 cup sauce
2.5oz whole wheat pasta

448cals (61c/34p/10f)


MEAL 3 Post WO
1 scoop ON whey
1/2 cup oats
1/4 cup greek yogurt
1/4 cup almond milk
1 tbsp natural PB
1 large banana

526cals (61c/40p/14f)

MEAL 4
8oz chicken
1 cup sweet potato
1/2 cup greens
2 tbsp fat free ranch

430cals (47c/58p/2f)

MEAL 5
9oz fish
1 cup whole grain medley
1/2 cup greens

488cals (51c/59p/7f)

MEAL 6
8oz lean steak
6 egg whites
1/2 cup greens
2 tbsp steak sauce

472cals (6c/65p/16f)

Totals:
3060 cals
308 carb
305 protein
66 fat

Of course on my workout days where I lift + cardio I have to adjust a bit more to cover maintenance
plus deficit. 2950 + ~500 = 3450. This is where I'm unsure as to what additional amount of calories
I should add. I've gone up to 3600 so far and my waist remains the same while my weight seems to
be slightly on the rise. My off days I drop the Pre and Post workout meals but add other sources to
keep the intake around 2800-2900 with lower carbs, macro (35c/45p/20f)

My question is; Should I up my calories even more? I want to get the most out of the cycle, but I really
want to keep the added fat to a minimum the best I can. Any suggestions?

How far into the cycle are you?
I would have patience as of now. The scale is going up and not your waist so things are going well for you.
