A healthy body if you have a lot of fat to lose could support 2 lbs weekly, meaning daily 1000 cal deficit.
Your weight shows you could support that.
But you don't have a healthy body, diabetes, even properly handled, is still a stress.
Does your nutritionist even know how much you are burning?
And does that include you manually logging the workouts the Fitbit is badly underestimating?
You may have even more deficit than you think if your daily burn is actually higher.
That's a rather huge deficit, only eating about 50% what you body could maintain on.
And even though logging accuracy of food eaten is important - you'd have to be lying to yourself to be overcoming that much deficit with bad logging.
Now, combine reducing your metabolism and daily burn by 20-25% max that studies have shown, and eating more than you are logging, then indeed you might be wiping out available deficit, or it's so slow now.
Though, even reduced to 2250 - 3000, that would have to be some awful logging.
I'm chalking it up to your body is already stressed with disease, your exercise levels are adding more stress, especially when combined with the stress of a huge deficit to what you burn.
Stress messes up hormones and makes you have to fight for fat loss.
So either eat more so you have a more reasonable deficit of 1000 daily, or back off the exercise to cause that to happen.
Perhaps eating at maintenance for a week or two to really unstress from the diet part.
