HELP - Am I in starvation mode?!

Ok, so I have been sticking to my caloric and macro targets better than ever for the last month, but I haven't lost any weight! Since I workout 3-4 days a week, my TDEE is supposedly somewhere between 3000-3500 calories a day, and my BMR is around 1900 - 2000. I've been consuming 2500 calories, and it was working before, but not anymore.

Do I need to eat more to lose weight? Am I in starvation mode? Is my body broken? :sad:

    My logging hasn't been spot on recently, I don't log excercise, but I eat the same thing everyday so I know my caloric intake is closer to 2500 based on logging previously.

    Could be Wegmans, maybe they've put some secret spice in your food that is keeping you from losing.
