Is it a real calorie deficit or are you just assuming it’s a deficit? Once you start dieting your body goes into low power mode

Did you find your deficit by actually measuring weight loss against calories or did you use some abstract number you found on the internet?

You have no idea what your deficit is and 500 is also just an abstract number
