Hey Darren,
Thanks for the encouragement - much appreciated!
And I totally agree on bulking!

I'd like to see myself at 11 - 12 % and then take it from there as far as bulking more or continue to cut.

Dude - I'm always tweaking the diet depending on what we have in the house.
I have two small children and my wife shops mostly for what they and her will eat through the week, so the best I can do right now is to try to keep a consistency of Protein/Carb/Fat mix.
Generally I'll stay around 35/45/20 and bounce the protein up after workouts on training days.
(Between you and I, I don't buy in to the whole 1.5 to 2 grams per lean pound of bodyweight)

I am experimenting with the ratio and also allow myself a high carb day once a week - but it is usually extra beans, sweet potato, rice, green veggie and maybe a couple slices of bread.
