    Well I'm absolutely no expert, especially not for men, but I would say that if you plan on staying at/around 220, then you should up your calories to maintenance and continue lifting and eating the right macros to gain muscle/lose fat. However if you still plan to lose you still need a deficit.

    I would suggest reading some at IIFYM.com. And then look around and get some advice as to how to lose fat and gain muscle. I haven't really gotten to such a stage yet but I'm sure there are better people around here than I at this stuff.

    Congrats on making it to your goal. :)
