Remain in a 500 calorie deficit.

When you calculated your calorie requirements you were probably heavier, perhaps re-calculate at your now lighter weight.
Do you only track calories or also macros fat, carbs protein etc. ? Good idea to keep protein high as possible to retain muscle mass when shedding fat. The art of bodybuilding is all about ripping fat off the body whilst retaining as much muscle as possible during the 'cutting phase'.

Look up bodybuilding sites on how to calculate your macros for your desired goal, and stick to them ! Usually called IIFYM (if it fits your macros)
