Fessed up with weight. So the new plan. You know I have to have a plan, even if I don't follow it.

Lose 5 (200 for the first) then maintain for a week, lose 5 maintain, lose 5 maintain until I hit 185. 2200 calories are my cut calories, which may put me at a month before the 5 pound loss, 2800 calories will be maintenance, though the first cycle could easily be quicker. (Please, please, please!)

Trying a new lifting routine (yes, another plan) that will cycle rep ranges. 3 groups of 2 day splits with one rest day. Rep ranges will cycle 12-20, 8-12, 3-6 to failure. 3 sets after 2 quick warm up sets. 2 min rest in the 12-20, and 8-12, 3 min rest between the 3-6 rep sets. Each rep range gets one of the two day splits. Once I'm at 185 I will try a recomp using same rep ranges and cycles.

Banzai!!!

The quick jump up has got to be mostly water. Your plan sounds good, is your reason for maintaining the 5lb drops before moving on to minimize muscle loss?

Sounds like a good plan. I like the idea of taking a little break from the weight loss for a week after you hit those 5 lb marks. Should keep the metabolism firing along.

I love a good plan! Makes me feel organized and focused, which I need!

That's the idea, Jim. Keep the catabolism at bay. It's also why I'll start a recomp at about 185. I think 185 will put me at about 12.5% bf.
