Hello all I'd like to start off by giving my stats and then follow into what i need help with:

6'3''
250
17.4% BF
27 Years Old

I have been lifting for 12 consecutive years now. Body Building extensivly for the past year and power lifting for 4 years prior to that. Anything before that was a learing experience.

Currently on MWF SA SU i am doing cardio on the gazelle on fat burner cycle for 28 minutes. According to the machine i typically burnn 350-450 calories. I weight lift M-Sa in the evenings. I do cardio around 11.

My Diet is as follows:

5am- 1 scoop gold standard whey protien mix with water
9am- 1 cup low fat nordica cottage cheese with sliced peaches or cantelope
11am cardio and sauna
1pm- 4 hard boiled egg whites, 1 cup homemade tuna fish salad, ( the recipie is for about 6 servings,consisting of three large jars of tuna in water, 1/2 cup of dried cranberries, 1/2 cup of peanuts, 2 cups of green seedless grapes, 3 stalks of celeray and 2 table spoons of miracle whip light) At this time I also drink my BCAA's and eat another cup of nordica cottage cheese.
430- drink preworkout Assault
5PM- Gym ( which ever muscle group it is for the day.) Mondays legs Tues Chest Wed shoulders Thurs back Friday Bi Tri and forarms. I do abs and calves just about everytime i do cardio. I do a 5x5 routine for the big three to include deadlift on back day, flat bench 5x5 everyother week I switch with decline, and on legs day i do 5x5 of squats.
7pm Dinner to consist of one of the following, 2 tilapia fillets, 6-8 oz boneless skinless chicken, or Salmon fillet, and house salad with light italian and romaine lettuce sometimes i add feta, I will eat a steamables vegatable, usually split the bag with my wife and 1 cup prepared brown rice.


This is my diet to a tee everysingle day. The only thing i sometimes add will be a sugar free popsicle after dinner, somtimes will eat a fiber one bar, sometimes will eat a nature valley oats and honey gronola bar. I drink alc very rarley, I dont drink anything other than water, unless its whey or BCAA's or sugar free blueberry, cran grape, or cran lemonade. Once again sugar free.

I have been doing this diet for 2 months now solid. I throw in one cheat day a week in which i do not count calories on one meal and just eat what i want.

When i started i weighed 260 and was aprox 20% BF. I had a 42 1/2 waist. I am at 17.4% bf now and 40 1/8 inches. I feel like i am not making progress as i would like. I am not on anything currently. The only things i take are stated above.

I am getting ready to start a cycle of the following:
W1-W15 Test E 500mg on M and Thur
W1-W15 EQ @ 500mg on M and Thur
W1-W7 D bol @ 50mg ED split 2 doses.

PCT Tamox Cit-
W1 40mg ED
W2 40mg ED
W3 20mg ED
W4 20mg ED

Week off.

Test E Week1-8 @ 250 mg 2times a week
Tren- Week 1-8 EOD @ 100mg


I will obviously adjust my diet and increase it greatly once i start cycle.

My question is what should I be doing to decrease my body fat right now in addition to what i am doing already so i can be more lean going into this next cycle?

If you need any more information just let me know. And once again thanks for reading and giving the advice.
