I don't know your tdee but I'm guessing yes.

You're going to lose probably 2lbs per week (more in the first week due to water weight loss) and then burn out after a few weeks.

Do you expect to gain weight on a 1600 calorie diet?

Nope, trying to cut. Just wondering if 1600 is too few
>>41062514
You'd have to be a real dwarf to gain weight on 1600.

At 1.6 kcal a day, you will definitely lose weight.

Find your tdee. Take 20-25% off depending on how fat you are.

I should be at 2000 not 1600. Thanks friend.

Sedentary 5'3" women can lose weight on 1600 kcal/day. So yes, you're going to lose weight.
Question, If I exercise regularly, but eat like an avergae joe, or even less, will I just become a fucking skeleton, or will I at least look good?

How do I reduce bf% without losing unhealthy amounts of weight? Work out hard while eating at maintenance? Or do I need to be at a deficiency?

Assuming you mean the same amount of protein as well, nothing will happen. Your body is not going to build muscle without protein.
I'm 5'3 170 lb
Started working out in march and wanted to take it even more seriously by now watching what I eat. Would 1600 cal a day be good?
I'm planning to go 40% protein, 30% carbs and 30% fats

If you're TDEE is 2000 then no. If it's 2200+ then yes

You'll destroy your body lifting daily.
Lift every other day for better results and a relatively pain free, ambulatory old age.
Probably lose, because the main energy source you are using for your muscles is protein, so the day you don't eat enough protein, your body will "borrow" your muscle tissue and convert it to energy,thus losing gains.
