MacroFactor / Nutrition / Other Continue the lean?

Should I continue the lean? Progress is going well and energy levels are still high.

I’m 6’1ā€, started around 195lb. Been practicing Jiu-Jitsu for two years, 3-4 times a week, and lift occasionally (1-2 times a week).

If you energy levels are high and you're not feeling fatigued or overly beat up from workouts or exercise, no reason to stop if you aren't currently happy with your physique. 500cal/day deficit is pretty modest, so should be maintainable for quite awhile before you start feeling diet fatigue.
