You have your calculator set on deficit. You need to set it on maintain.

Based on your inputs, we suggest you eat: 1519 calories. From those, 130g fats, 20g net carbs, and 66g protein

All of the calculators use the calories in, calories out method. CICO is useless and just causes problems.

I calculated your info below using this https://keto-calculator.ankerl.com set at sedentary (this gives a good baseline number), no deficit, middle protein, carbs at 20.

1493kcal Daily Calorie Intake (this is a goal not a limit. Going over based on hunger with fat is fine.)

20 g Carbs (5%, 80 kcal) (this is a limit)

72 g Protein (19%, 288 kcal) (going over or under occasionally is fine)

125 g Fat (76%, 1125 kcal) (eat fat to satiety. If you’re hungry, eat more.)

As you see, even above the calculators don’t agree. This is why trying to limit your macros to a very specific number isn’t good practice.
