Should I Only Be Eating 1200 Calories Per Day to Lose Weight?

My mom lectured me today that if I want to lose weight, I need to limit my calories to 1200 per day and exercise more. She thinks I'm not doing enough cardio.

I told her I am counting every calorie I eat and exercising 5 days per week with Daniel and Kelli but she didn't listen.

Should I be only eating 1200 calories per day? I'm a 34 year old woman who is currently 5 foot 9 and 234 pounds roughly. Every website I've seen says that I should be having between 1700 and 1800 per day if I want to lose weight.
