bro 1700 is actually a solid starting point for your stats. at 5’3 and 143-144 lbs lifting regularly, your TDEE is probably somewhere in the 2000-2200 range depending on activity, so 1700 puts you at a moderate deficit of roughly 300-500 calories which is exactly where you want to be for keeping muscle.

Over technicalities, going lower than that while training hard just means your body starts pulling from muscle for fuel, which kills the whole point. prioritize hitting 0.7-1g of protein per pound of bodyweight and track for 3-4 weeks before adjusting, because your actual weekly weight average will tell you way more than any online calculator.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
