Am I doing CICO right?

I've been stuck on a weight loss plateau for such a long time so I was wondering if there's something wrong with my approach altogether?

I'm 26 F, 5'5 and currently weigh 78 Kilos (172 pounds)

My BMR is ~1500 calories My TDEE is ~1800 calories My calorie consumption is 1200 calories (tracking with MFP, and I use a food scale) I burn an average of 300 calories daily through workouts (MI band stats from last week) Sidenote: I have thyroid but I'm taking meds for it.

The funny thing is, I was following this regime and losing weight initially in the year, but over the last 4-5 months it's been stagnant. I'm clearly not at my goal weight (still overweight BMI) so not sure what's going on.

Can someone help me understand if my approach to consuming these calories is okay? Or am I undereating and my slow metabolism is revolting?

Feels damn frustrating.
