they told me I should lose all the weight first

That's a spectacularly terrible idea. Weights give you the definition you want, especially in your neck/shoulders, which shape your jaw. At 5'7, 156, you have a healthy BMI and are probably paunchy because of lack of muscletone and possibly crap in your gut from too little fiber.

Up your calories a little bit (about 1,500), focus on protein and do some gentle lifting. If nothing else, add bodyweight movements to your daily activities.

Also, what are you eating? 1,200 calories of cheese sandwich and lemonade don't go as far as 1,200 calories of chicken thighs and roasted vegetables.
