Not losing any weight but I’m not discouraged

M 5'6" 250 lbs i have adhd and had a good addiction until i was able to get treatment and now ive been able to dial in and change my lifestyle. I've been eating at maintenance for a few months now so I haven't been losing any weight. Im using trial and error to dial down how much my body needs to maintain calories, because tdee is very inaccurate. I work at a warehouse and run 6 miles a day along with weight training in the early morning, but I don't really factor that stuff in terms of calories. it seems my body is really efficient with its energy so my tdee seems to be a little under 2000 calories a day. I've been doing OMAD and I've just had one chicken breast at 423 calories at 9 oz that I round up a few hundred calories to 700 along with a bag of frozen vegetables that the label puts at 240 calories but labels aren't all accurate so I'll also look at the serving info and weigh the vegetables that way. I'll also round up by a couple hundred calories. I'll cook with a non-stick pan so I don't have to use any oil and then I'll add a few more calories when I log it at 1500 calories. I go to bed pretty hungry but I'm not losing weight so I can cut more out and bump up the cardio. Weight loss is a lot harder than i thought but if i keep lowering the amount i eat and keep increasing the intensity of my workouts i can start seeing progress. Wish me luck!
