I've lost 25 pounds but I don't feel any leaner

I am 17 5,9 and a male and Ive gone from 195 to 170 and I got there through a 6 month process but like I don't feel skinnier or leaner and I haven't really been working out as much as I should and I'm worried I've just lost water weight and muscle and no actual fat but I've been working out a lot more recently with strength training and stuff and i was originally on a 1200 calorie deficit and my target weight is 160

Any thoughts have my 25 pounds lost actually been water weight and muscle cause I'm getting worried
