why am i not losing fat & how do i lose it?

for reference, i (24f) am 5'2 and 144 lbs. i mentioned fat in the title because i do gain muscle easily and have a solid amount of muscle on my legs and some on my arms & shoulders. since about august 22-24 i have been walking around 5k steps a day and in a calorie deficit (it ranges from 700-1200 calories a day). i also work out by lifting weights at least once every other week.

i've gained more muscle from the walking since it's slight incline walking on my way to class and also from lifting weights, but i feel like i haven't lost fat on my stomach and sides. how do i fix this? i want to look better, and i also want to lose fat since i have a condition that makes my cholesterol high easily & my doctor said exercise / weight loss will help.

i'm a full time college student in an intense program so i really only have like 3 hours max a day on week days (at least 5-6 on weekends) so i'd really appreciate something i can do that doesn't take up too many hours in my day so it doesn't affect my studies/grades.

thank you so much to anyone who replies or reads this! i appreciate it!
