I am a 24-year-old male, 175 cm tall, currently weighing 67 kg. My estimated body fat percentage is around 20%, and I have visible softness around my lower abdomen and love handles, even though my chest and shoulders are well-developed. I have been in a calorie deficit for about 2 years, with the last 6 months being particularly slow and frustrating in terms of fat loss. My current daily intake is around 1600 kcal and 100g of protein, which results in an approximate deficit of 450 kcal based on my real maintenance with my activity level, including training at the gym 8-10 times a month and because of my office job I do only around 5k steps a day. Despite this, weight loss has been extremely slow, sometimes stalling for weeks before occasional small drops. I maintain a decent amount of muscle and strength, but my main goal is to lose the last 4 kg of fat to achieve a flat stomach and reduce love handles without losing muscle mass. Should I do a metabolic reset for a longer time and start the deficit again, or should I keep the current deficit and make adjustments, since weight loss is currently stalled?
