Earlier in the year I lost a USB with my SSN on it. So I started entering the ID theft box thinking I should at least mention my SSN is on watch in case someone steals it, but when I thougth about it, my SSN never was stolen so I figured I don't need to file for a stolen SSN. However, backing out of the ID theft form made Turbo Tax insist I should review/finish it. How do I simply delete this from my return?

If you are referring to Form 14039 for the Identity Theft Affidavit. If that is not needed, you can delete it from your return. using these steps:

Log into your return and click orange Take me to my return button
Click My Account in the top right and select Tools
Click Delete a form and when the list opens, scroll down and click Delete next to Form 14039
