A month into my serious try at weight loss (and advice please!)

Hello all! I am F/27/170cm/115.5 kg

My starting weight a month ago was 118 and I've had good days and bad, but I've actually managed to lose some weight!

A year ago i actually weighed less at 109 but i wasn't trying to lose or maintain weight it just happened after a summer of hard work at a guesthouse to earn my keep. At that time i got one of those body anlysis tests (my school was offering it for free and it's originally in korean so please bear with me if it's a bit confusing) and it said to be within my proper fat range (fat control) i need to lose 27.1kg, so from that times weight it would make my goal 82kg. And it said my muscle range (muscle control) is 0 so i guess my muscle level is fine. The way I've been trying to lose weight is daily walking atleast 20 minutes, 2-3 times a week youtube low impact exercise for 20-30 minutes, and dance class 1-2 times a week 2-3 hours. I usually over eat my limit but with exercise i can bring it back into range though honestly atleast once a week a fall out of the range.

In the morning i eat an egg and drink this korean drink called misutgaru which i encourage you to look up! It's basically the korean traditional version of a protein shake, made of ground up beans and rice which i mix with water. For the last week I've settled on eating brown rice, mixed veggies and seasoned chicken. I mix the seasoning myself of garlic, onion, and chilli powder with a bit(15 mg or tablespoon) of sugar and salt and this coats 3-4 pieces of chicken. When i get tired of chicken I'll probably switch to tuna. And dinner i either eat another helping of lunch or misutgaru or this is the time i will fall of the train and eat what i want (take out, left over unhealthy food etc.etc) i also go out to eat with friend maybe twice a week(by this i don't mean a sitdown restaurant just like a meal i don't cook myself) and that's also where the calorie overload comes from. i do try to counteract by eating less during the day so i can do this, but as you see i haven't hit my monthly goal so I'm not doing a great job of it. But i won't give up!i have a very stable healthy goal i remember daily with "perk goals" on the side so i have no ibtention of giving up! And here are my questions

  1. At first my calorie counter was at 1600s and now it's 1300s because i wanted to lose 1kg a week rather than .75kg is that healthy?

  2. What is your opinion of the machine putting my normal at 82kg? When i look online usually it's smaller than that for my height but i am pretty broad and i carry the weight well so do you think that also means i can be heavier than all the online standards and that's normal?

  3. how do i deal with hunger in a healthier way other than ignoring it? know some people say suffer through but I've been overweight/obese my whole life and it's something i can't ignore forever like an itch. if i get the pounds off i am afraid I'll eat my way back up the scale becuase I'll think i can "afford the calories"

Thanks for reading!
