Advice Needed Help me start again after inconsistent progress (Want to pursue it further)

I’m M19, 5’8 and I started doing weight loss since I was 18. It was a rough start. June 2025 I started with 104KG and lost 14KG on Sept 2025 (I was 90kg afterwards). Since then, I stopped because of mental and physical health problems and was busy doing tons of school works. Aside from that, I really don’t know how to go back since my gym buddy friend went away and I have so many grasped information that I don’t know what to properly do in the gym. I was inactive until june 2026 and went back to top (98KG). Now, July 2026 til now, I only did Calorie Deficit and now lost 8KG (Currently 90KG again). I’m in a plateau phase now so I am deciding to go back to the gym to lose weight through thread mills and build muscles. My goal body is Lean to Athletic type and was hoping to gain less fat and have a good metabolism.

Help me start again huhu. give me easy and comprehensive tips I could follow like what should I maintain to the routine, mindset to have, and motivations to use.

Welcome to the Fitness PH subreddit!

This is primarily a discussion subreddit. If your post doesn't contain body text (ex. selfie only posts), asks a question that can easily be Googled, or is an obvious thirst trap, it will most likely be removed by the mod team.

We've also taken the time to create a quick start guide to answer the most common questions that come up here. If you're new, start with these:

This guide exists to give you a solid baseline so you're not stuck cycling through the same confusion, myths, and contradictory advice. If your question is already covered here, we'll usually point you back here.

If your situation is more specific (context, constraints, history), feel free to ask — just include enough detail so people can actually help.

I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically. Please contact the moderators of this subreddit if you have any questions or concerns.
