How long does recomp last after re-starting lifting?

Been back for 5 weeks after a 3 year hiatus of lifting weights. I gained a ton of weight and didnt retain most of my gains.

so far my arms, chest and back are all coming back niccely, all while losing 1 shirt size but i have been stuck at the same weight for 5 weeks. how long can i keep it going (same weight, more strenght, less fat)?

Dont worry about it until it stops

Since you do have some training background, it will probably be sooner than later
That's when you need to decide whether you want mass or shredds and adjust accordingly

Or just hop on some juice
