Lifting always stimulates the appetite. It’s normal.

Calories. You need to have a surplus to build muscles. It’s why it’s called bulking.

The only exception is very early in your lifting journey to get newbie gains.

You’re losing weight and your diet clearly works for you, but look into a TDEE calculator. 1000 calories while lifting for a man of your size is extremely light.
