How am I not loosing weight?

Hi everyone! First time poster, long time lurker. I haven’t owned a scale before, and so I’m not new to dieting, but I’m new to weighing myself.

SW/CW: 173lbs GW: 140 Height: 5’5

I am using the happyscale app and weighing myself everyday, initially I lost three pounds the first week of eating 1307 calories (1000 calories below my TDEE for a weight loss of 2 lbs per week), but I’m in my second week now and Im back at 173 lbs. I am pretty sedentary because Im a student and work from home all day (and take naps during the day), is that why? I do still do resistance training 2x a week for 45 minutes.

Should I be weighing myself everyday? I’ve been eating 1307 calories these last couple days but before that I wasn’t even eating that much (around 1600 calories for the last year, but unsure if I lost during that time bc I didn’t own a scale). Is there such thing as your body being in “starvation mode” or have I wrecked my metabolism from a ED that I had 7 years ago?

Is it too soon to tell if this is normal or not for wanting to loose 2 lbs a week? I understand I gained weight because I was eating too much, but I don’t understand how my weight isn’t budging right now.

Ugh I feel like my body is broken.
