Am I eating enough???

Three weeks wouldn't be long enough for external damage to show. 1200 is likely way too low. The fatigue, hair loss and skin/nail problems didn't show up for me until about three months of undereating. By then the damage was done. Don't do what I did!

With 20 pounds left to lose, set your goals at, "Lose 1/2 pound per week," and don't choose Sedentary unless you are not working at all and have no chores at home. Almost no one needs to be set at Sedentary, and certainly if you are in school, working, or running a household it's unlikely you need to choose Sedentary.

As far as cutting grains, that's a personal choice. There are lots of ways to get more calories without grains, though I would have a hard time hitting my nutrition goals without some grains. They are a big source of Iron for me.

*edit, looking at your food page I see you're still having a couple servings of grains a day, that's what I do too. Since you are using a lot of "medium" "1 cup" etc, I'm guessing you aren't using a food scale? You may be eating more than you think - I hope so, because you're not even hitting the 1200 on most days.

I’m not aiming for a fast fix and don’t want to lose the little muscle mass I already have,

In which case, adjust your goal to 0.5lb per week to continue a slow and steady deficit whilst getting more nutrition and preserving your muscle mass.

If you have 20lb to go then setting a 2lb/wk rate of loss is indeed looking for a “fast fix”.
