Stop when you hit 11xbw. I’m pretty sure there’s a part in the article about that somewhere. Your ultimate goal is to get maximum results with minimal change. First, it’s simply easier. Second, it leaves you much more room to move if your fat loss stalls.
I’d suggest starting at 3200 cal/day. See how you go. If/when you stop progressing, move to 3000 cal/day, etc. When I say stop progressing, I mean you see no weight less for over a week to 10 days. Try measuring your waistline too, because if that’s receding even if the scale isn’t you’re still progressing.
With training, I’d suggest adding volume. Stronglifts is a mediocre program at best, and I’m being nice saying that. Nothing wrong with using sets of five, but that alone won’t help your muscle retention. Something like
