Question about calories and exercise

Hi! So im about 5'3" 133lbs right now and I want to get down to 115. I started at 165 and have been eating between 1200-1300 for the past year. In the last 2 months the weight loss has been very painfully slow (a 3lb loss as opposed to a 8lbs loss) and I recently joined a gym to try to jumpstart my weightloss again.

My problem is that when I joined the gym they said my MBR is around 2000 and I should be eating 1600 calories a day if I work out 3 times a week for about an hour. For me this seems kind of high? Im not exactly tiny but I'm still pretty short and I'm afraid that if I eat 1600 a day I'll start gaining weight back.

So should I eat at 1600? Or do a compromise at 1400? Also did eating between 1200-1300 for a year cause my weight loss to slow down so much? Thanks!
