I'm also eating waaaaay less than i ever have: at 185 lbs with 17% body fat, the prescribed daily cals to lose weight/maintain muscle is around 2200.
this is definately a leap of faith for me!

Sounds good. The key is to not overwhelm your recovery abilities when you start a fat loss plan - too much training can impair recovery, which in turn, lowers androgen levels.
Be sure you're consuming vegetables, lean protein food sources, and plenty of fish oil.
