You seem like someone who doesn't really want advice or you think you know it all. Loosing weight isn't hard...in fact it it isn't hard at all.
Do 60min morning cardio 5 days a week for 2 months...you will get lean.

You are a 190lb pear now. At 155lbs, you will just be a 155lb pear. Do you want to be a pear at 155lbs? Do you seriously think you are going to not loose any muscle if you do a ton of cardio and get down to 155? You will. So....not only will you be a buck fifty five at 5'10, but now with 10% less muscle then before. Then....you end up getting a gut anyway at 155 in a year or so because muscle is thermgenic...so the less you have, the more the fat builds up. This is why bodybuilders get to 260lbs for years...then at 30-35 years old, then skim down to 200-220 at 8% and do work to maintain it.

I lift to get big and cut up....but the problem is that you have to strive to get big, but settle for 10lbs of muscle a year. Striving for anything less gets you little to no gain. Unless you have magic genes, you are going nowhere with the attitude you have. You body doesn't change easy so you need to push it beyond it's limits.

Sorry if this may come off as condesending, but I constantly hear attitudes like this and people wonder why they are the same all the time no matter what they try to do.
