OK, been right around 250 for a few weeks now. I'm eating about 3000 cals plus my normal workouts which are:

Sat-Thurs: AM Cardio (50-70 mins.)

Sun PM: HST weights
Tues PM: long bike
Thurs PM: HST Weights
Saturday: Big cardio day

goals: overall fitness, sprint/olypmic triathlons, maintain LBM.

should I try a cut to 2000 cals and see how the body responds?

major foods of the day includes:

egg whites w/ low fat cheese
turkey
chicken
myoplex (when i can't bring eggs to a meeting)
salads (garbonzo beans, cucumber, mushrooms, low cal/no fat dressing)
oatmeal
wild rice
apples
yogert (occasional)
treat: 1 serving jelly beans

i don't know if this is the best thing to do overnight...i'll defer to the experts.
 
Why not drop to 2750 or 2500 first?

realistically, its been between 2500-3000. i have matabolism that makes frozen snot look like the second coming of Carl Lewis.

ROFL!

Yea, it is best to cut cals by the MOST at 500. Wait a week or two, then cut them again. These things take time. Cut the cals slowly, and loose the weight slowly, as to try and retain as much LBM as possible :)
 
I think a 50% cut is pretty drastic, 500-750 sounds fair. :)
 
if you are already doing a mix of both cardio and weights along with dieting, then theres no need to go for too drastic of a calorie defciet. cutting by 500 is fine. any more for a prolonger period and you can kiss some of that muscle goodbye.
how about posting your diet meal by meal(time, amount, when you train, etc).
and those jellybeans could be holding you back some too! :p
