Trying to Maintain but still losing weight

I am 5"5 f 112lbs as of 2 days ago and i am in maintence mode . I have been staying at 114.8 or 115 and for about 3 weeks now i have be in a downward sprial on the scale. I work out 5 days per wk cardio for 50-55 min and 30min weights 4x per week , Sat I do 30 min HITT with Sun off usuallly my cheat day .I usually eat 1400-1600 cals per day with a cheat meal on the weekend probably in excess of 1300 cals or more. i am wondering why i keep losing weight ?, i have figured my maintence to be a 1800 cals or so i think anyway . so i eat like i do to save room for a cheat meal . is this okay? cause i have to satisfy my craving for junk at least one day a week (plus my husband goes insane with all the healthy food i cram in him ) or should i eat maintenence and still cheat? 112 is not a bad look for me and i feel great , my husband says i look healthy, my bmi is still within healthy weight range but on the low end (18.7) I just wonder if this weight is healthy cause i dont want to lose anymore for sure. i track my cals pretty well and i know i may go under 1400 1-2days a week for lack of time to eat but never below 1200. Should i just have a cheat week and see what happens, has anyone ever done this before? will it help me make up for what i have lost maybe ? i dont know, but i know i dont want to screw up my sucess. Please Help!!!
