Your caloric requirements decrease as you lose weight.

I use the app "lose it" on my phone and it updates what your caloric intake should be as you lose weight

If you are losing weight, keep it as it is, if it's to slow or if you stop losing weight reduce calorie intake or increase activity level.

The value you should track is the average from the last 15 days.

If you are 6 foot at least I wouldn't go under 200lbs and just build muscle.

What do you look like? Can you estimate your body fat, are you happy with what you see? Calorie and macro trackers are just tools. With that being said men should not go below 1600 cals so that's your hard limit. You will also not lose weight linearly indefinitely. Your body adjusts to it's new energy output quickly. Usually 8 weeks or so. Also if you're eating below maintenance you'll need a refeed every two weeks or so and if your body fat is approaching single digits you'll need a refeed once a week. Low fat high carb high protein. Lastly, eat the minimum amount of food you can be consistent with. If you're consistently eating over your target then perhaps you need to re-evaluate. In the end you need to set a goal and once you reach it, reassess and plan forward.
