Lost 42kg, when do I stop?

Hi!

For information: I’m 22, 188cm, currently 105KG.

January 2025 I started my weight loss journey, and weighed myself at 147 KG on January 1st, I then slowly lost weight at around a kilo a week, with my current weight sitting around 105 KG’s

Changing my eating habits made the biggest difference, I just ate a lot higher in protein and a lot less candy / carbs.

As for exercise, I only really did resistance training at home, with some weights for 30 minutes a day, to keep muscle loss at a minimum, though its almost impossible to completely avoid when losing such a big amount of weight.

Aside from that, I didn’t go to the gym. I do sometimes walk a few kilometres in the woods, but that’s purely for fun, not necessarily for the exercise.

Now the burning question I have is: What now? I want to go to the gym and really focus on gaining a lot of muscle, but I’m not really sure if I will gain anything as I’m still in a heavy deficit most of the days, gaining muscle while losing weight is very hard, so it feels pointless.

My plan is currently to go until 95kg (hopefully will get there at somewhere in late February or 2026, and to then switch to a slight surplus and really test how disciplined I am when it comes to going to the gym.
