Not losing any weight despite calorie deficit and exercise

For the last three weeks I've been dieting and working out after gaining around 8 kg during my last two semesters of uni. I've been tracking calories consistently and stayed in a calorie deficit of around 300 kcal a day (depending on how much I walk during work).

I've also been working out every day alternating between cardio (30 - 40 minutes of dancing) and strength training (also 30 - 40 minutes focusing mostly on the abdominal muscles, back and legs). I also work a job that consistently requires me to walk around 6k - 10k steps a day.

Because I do all of that I would've expected at least a loss of half a kilo per week, but there's been nothing except for normal weight fluctuations of around half a kilo up and down.

So is there anything I'm doing wrong or anything impeding my progress that I don't know about?
