I’m afraid I’m not counting my calories properly. Advice?

(f) 5’4 and currently weigh 178lbs and have lost 42lbs in the past year. 2 months ago I decided to lock in to lose some weight before summer in the hopes to get to 155. Every deficit calculator I’ve used (which is a lot just to be sure) is recommending 1,300 cal a day and because it’s such a low number I’m constantly afraid of going above it, especially when cooking my own meals since there’s no straight forward nutrition facts to look at. I’ve gone from 185 to 178 but all of a sudden everything has stopped the scale isn’t moving my measurements aren’t going down and I’m constantly yo-yoing from 178-180lbs

Today I ate

4 slices of French toasts instead (estimated 600 cals)

Frozen microwaveable pasta (250 cals)

dumplings and fish (estimated 509 cals)

This is supposed to put me right at my recommended daily calorie intake but every time I eat I’m afraid I’m somehow going over and will gain weight.

Im also walking 15k steps daily which my Apple Watch claims to burn 600 calories. Am I on the right track for weight loss or do I need to adjust something
