    Hazarding a guess, you might be a little out of the healthy BMI range. I suggest following the above posters advice but at the end of the day, you should do what you feel comfortable with. What do you want to achieve?

    Based on your picture you probably should diet off more fat first before maintaining.

    Would recommend a calorie modest deficit, high'ish protein and a proper weights program.

    Agreed, I'd try to lose down to 55kg or so and start lifting now if you aren't already.

    You have quite a lot of fat to lose then. Quite a long way before you can consider switching to maintenance.
    Good luck.
