I’m unsure of what to do.

F/21 5’7” SW:266 CW:260 GW:180

I recently started learning more about weight loss, specifically CICO, but I’m finding it difficult to know how many calories I should be eating in a day.

I usually go for a walk every evening but it only amounts to about 3.5kms or 5000 steps, and I go to the gym a few times a week. According to my TDEE, if i’m sedentary I should only eat 1800 calories, but if I’m lightly active I should eat 2,200.

Over the last few weeks my weight has been fluctuating A LOT. like from 263-258 (i weigh myself in the morning) but it’s been mostly staying around the 260 mark. I see all these posts on here about people losing 10 lbs in 2 weeks or a month even and I haven’t. (i know everyone is different a loses at different paces, but basically what i’m saying is that i want to know how to lose more weight) I’ve lost the 6ish pounds since the beginning of October. I’ve been eating the 2,200 calories, but should I take it down to 1800? is there anyone who knows if this sounds like too little or too much for my lifestyle? is the answer just to go to the gym more?

another thing, if i only go to the gym a few times a week, should i eat more on those days and less on others where i don’t go? or constantly eat the same amount of calories?

thank you for your help, this sub has been so amazing for me and my mental health. ❤️ also this is my first post, so if i’m missing anything please let me know!
