Not losing weight on a calorie defecit

For context, I'm female, 28, 308lb, 5'6, with a goal of 224lb.

I've been in a calorie defecit for 2 weeks and in my experience in the past, the first few weeks are when you lose the most weight (water weight).
I've lost absolutely nothing and I'm doing the following:

- 2000 kcal a day (2600kcal to maintain weight)
- Intermittent fasting (21:00-13:00)
- 30 minutes of walking every day
- 7-8 hours of sleep on a regular cycle (23:00-07:00)
- Meet and exceed protein goals every day
- Portion of 5 fruit and veg every day
- 2L of electrolyte water every day
- Never exceeding my fat, sugar or carbohydrate goals
- Black coffee every day

I do have PCOS and Hypothyroidism working against me. My thyroid levels are currently too high and I'm waiting for my GP appointment next Tuesday to discuss increasing my dose of levothyroxine.

Am I doing anything wrong? Or is this something to discuss with the GP?

Edit: TDEE was inaccurate and included my height
