help with cutting weigght

[LiverThrow]

heres the deal, i weigh 185lbs with maybe 17%bf. For various reasons im going to cut down to 165lbs. Would it be enough to just cut the fat or do i need to cut muscle. i mean if i cut down to 8%bf what weight would i end up on?

Well I'm in a daze from studying all night but I'll try to break this down...

If you cut just fat it would look like this.

185 * 17% fat = 31 lbs of fat.

185 - 31 = 154lbs lean body mass

165 - 154 = 11lbs fat = roughly 7-8% body fat @ 165 BW
