For those eating sub 1600 calories per day: How? What are your meals like?

Hi, so I'm trying to lose as much weight as possible in 2 weeks in order to get into the army ARMS program and I can't for the life of me figure out how to eat below 1600 calories. I mean I don't need to, but getting to 1500 calories would probably help me get that weight off quicker and I've recommended to drop to that calorie amount by my recruiter and brother(who lost a lot of weight to pass tape as well). I eat 3 times a day cause any less makes my workouts suffer in this heat and try to get around 40% protein, 30% carbs, and 30% fats. My breakfast and lunch is usually 500 calories and my dinner is usually 600. Honestly the only reason why my dinner is that high is cause olive oil is just so damn calorie dense and idk how to make panko breadcrumbs stick to chicken breast without it😭 How are you guys getting below 1600?

Edit: I should also probably mention that I'm a 19 year old woman, 5'3, 222 lbs, and kind of a beginner when it comes to fitness and weight loss and stuff.
