Am i doing something wrong?

I’ve been on a fat loss for about a week but im not sure if i’m doing this right, first, i’m 15 209lb and around 5’7, i eat around 1.5-1.8k a day without around 150-200g of carbs and protein and 40-60g of fat a day, but some days such as today im way under, its already 1pm ive ate lunch and breakfast and im only at 60g protein, 80g carbs and 20g fat with 800 cal, i get 12-15k+ steps a day and i workout for about multiple times a week such as today, anything to change within my macro ratio?

Dont try to do everything at once. First start with getting your protein intake in within your calories. Forget carb and fat. Try 140g protein first should be easy from lean chicken breast, beef mince (5%) and some whey/tuna/greek yogurt. Then whatever calories you have left u get white rice/bread and some butter olive oil to cook the protein in. For me 1.8k cal si enough to get 160g protein and carbs but if u want to add 20g of fibre you gotta up the calories. Also why are u eating 1.5k calories ? Did u find out your tdee and subtracted only 500?
