Gym Routine Questions: Please Help!

Hey there, I'm 23F 5'2 and 77kgs

I've recently begun working out at the gym and had an instructor draft up a routine for me. I'm combining my weight loss journey with a healthy meal plan consisting of 1200cal or less, regular work outs and keeping my cardio up with a fairly active job as well as usually topping 10k steps each day.

The instructor gave me a "full body workout routine" but I'm confused because the routine seems to be mostly arms and leg workouts and I'm quite heavy and pudgy in the mid-section and back. My legs are probably the most toned part of my body, and they're tiny in proportionate to my heavier frame (I'm so gross to look at..) I'm really concerned that I'm going to push myself and not receive the results I'm so desperate for. It just seems as though the parts I'm currently working on aren't the parts I'd LIKE to work on.

I really like the instructor and she's really nice, but I wanted to be a coward and ask the internet what I should be doing and if she had me on the right path. I'm just so disheartened that I'm never going to get anywhere near the body I'm striving for. I'd really like to have seen some progress before the start of next year. I just really want to look at myself and not have to stifle back a cry of repulsion or defeat.

Thank you for any and all responses.

Here is my workout routine (3-4 times a week)

WARM UP 10MINS ON TREADMILL/STEPS

ADDUCTION- 15X3 LEG EXTENSION- 10X3 CALF RAISES- 10X3
