Help?!?

Options
Sorry if this question is repetitive to other posts, im new to all this and am trying to get my calorie intake and exercise burn down so i can lose the pounds! So if my TDEE is 22697 i should be eating 1800 which is 20% under my TDEE right? I have been eating 1600 a day and havent been losing pounds and im hungry alot, although ive lost some inches. I do cardio 5 times a wk for 40 mins and also have just added weights to my workout routine. I get confused on all of this for some reason. I just dont want to eat too many calories and not lose and i also dont want to not be giving my body not enough fuel?? Thanks in advance..
