I have lost 32 lbs in the last 3.5 months. Yay. My question is how have other people who started obese and lost weight body comp change? Why I’m wondering this is yes I want to get my bf lower but I don’t want to lose my muscles while doing it. Yes I know I need to strength train to keep my muscle mass. Just wanting some intake from others.

Current
Weight 274
BF% 51
Muscle mass 124.6 pounds (45%)
Skeletal muscle mass 77.5 pounds (28.3%)
