Is trying to lose 60 pounds in 6 months realistic?

I’m a really small person. I’m 5’4” male and been really overweight for a long time. At my heaviest I was 225lbs. When the pandemic hit in I decided to start exercising more and got down to about 170lbs. Recently, I fell off the wagon and gained about 20lbs back (currently 187). My goal has always been to get to 135 (natural weight for my height) and maintain that weight. Last week, I joined an MMA gym and have been doing 1 hour kickboxing and BJJ classes 4 days a week (I’m new so I need break days here and there to recover sore muscles. My goal is to be able to go 6 days a week). To make this weight loss journey different than the other times I’ve tried to lose weight, I wanted to set a goal for myself that’s difficult, but ultimately achievable with hard work. Is losing 10lbs a month a realistic goal or should I give myself more time?

EDIT: You guys are super helpful. Thank you so much.
