Sounds pretty tough to get down to that weight though, I would definitely lose some muscle mass which is less than ideal.
You said it best right there...go by the mirror. I've got caught up in numbers way too many times to count, and have lost muscle I shouldn't have.

I should be taking your advice!!

My wife is like why are you dieting...you look good now. If I was smart....I should stop around 190 or so as I'm usually around 8% there. Going lower really eats up muscle unnecessarily as going from 8% to 6% is a lot harder than most think.

Also....since I'm only 5'7" on a good day, a few lbs one way or the other is very noticeable on me.

But I sabotage myself as I'm my own worst critic!
