Need some advice/opinion on daily calories

Hey everyone,

After going from 100kg to 80kg during the first lockdown I went up to 90kg again after I caught covid and really couldn't be physically active for about 6 months. Thankfully I could more or less keep stable between 90 and 95 through all kinds of personal issues that prevented me to to try to get back to 80-85. But now that all these things are getting better I got my mind set on going on the weight loss journey again.

The issue I have now is that I tried to keep my calories to about 2000kcal a day but the scale really didn't move at all. Now I'm wondering if I should go to 1800kcal or if that's just too few.

I'm 33 180cm 90kg working a desk job from home so not much moving around at all except for flag football practice once per week for 3 hrs, and going to the gym 3x per week (current program everything 5 sets of 5 reps: 3x per week squats 105kg, 1.5x 80kg bench press, 1.5x 75kg Barbell rows, 1.5x 60kg shoulder press, 1.5x 125kg deadlift)

TLDR: is 1800kcal too few for a 180cm 90kg male that Wants to get To 85/80kg while going to the gym 3x per week?
