I have lost 50 lbs over the last 6 months and I am now down to around my goal weight. I am 5'11' 185 lbs. I lost the weight by eating healthy and lifting weights mainly doing full body circuits 3 times a week. Once or twice a week I have also done some core work and flexability.

I am still a little soft my body fat percentage is still too high. My question is how can I lose body fat and gain muscle all while not losing too much more weight? I am a medium build and don't want to get down under 180 lbs. Is it even possible for me to shed body fat and not lose too much more weight? If so how do I go about this? I assume that I will need increase my calories a little and do more cardio?

Thanks for your help.
