1400-1600 Cal seems very low considering your work volume being up where it is. I hope you don’t start losing strength. I weigh between 80-81 kg and at the moment eating 2000 Cal, and fat is burning off at a fairly decent rate. Or have you considered eating maintenance calories on workout days, and cutting on only off days?
I agree these are low numbers compared with what's generally advised, but unfortunately this seems to be what's required at least to reach my goal in the time frame I have set for myself.
I have 3 weeks to lose another 2kg.
So far I have been able to maintain strength, so I am happy.
I generally eat 1600 calories on workout days and 1400 calories on non-workout days.

Feeling a little annoyed that some how I have gained a whole kilogram from Monday.
I guess I know it can't be fat and most likely water retention but it still pisses me off to be honest.
Only 2.5 weeks left to reach my goal. Starting to feel some added pressure to make it now.
