How to lose fat (but not weight)

Hi there!

For the past 2 years ive been on a pretty haphazard weight loss journey. Essentially, I exercised a lot and, more importantly, ate extremely little. This worked great! I’m 175cm and have gone from 95 to 65kg in that time. I’m at the perfect BMI for my height. I’m basically done! Except... I still feel fat. I look in the mirror and I see rolls upon rolls and when I compare myself to other “thin” people I still look really chubby. I went to a fitness evaluation yesterday and discovered this was because despite me having a good bmi, my body fat percentage is at 30%. Pretty dang high, and honestly a bit of a relief considering I had no idea what was wrong with me before.

So here’s the rub. I don’t know what to do from here. My life so far has been simple CICO, but I’ve been discouraged by the trainer who did my test from losing any more weight and instead focus on body recomp. I have no idea how to go about this. She gave me a simple workout/toning plan, but is there anything else? Should I still be cutting calories? Should I increase? I’m worried about gaining weight again . Should I just focus on muscle building or do more cardio as well? Are there any specific exercises I should be doing aside from the workouts my trainer gave me (shes not actually training me, I can’t afford that, she just gave me a simple full body program to follow)

Honestly, I feel like I’m 95kg again lol! Any advice would be appreciated!
