Make sure to use your food scale, you need to be as accurate as you can when it comes to losing your last 10 LBs because it's harder. You're probably not counting your calories right, use that scale!

It's always a mix of muscle/fat, unless you don't exercise then it would be just fat.

The fat mentality helps you keep going in my opinion, because when you reach your goal, then what?

1. To figure out your daily caloric needs use this calculator (the most accurate in my opinion) http://iifym.com/tdee-calculator/ Also I think MFP already does the calculation for your calories for you. You take your TDEE and subtract it by -500 (so you can be in a caloric deficit.) So you can try either caloric amount and…

It works great for me. I make sure to get %80-%90 of my calories from "clean" nutritious foods and the rest can be from whatever. Also protein is the #1 priority :P
-
Personally I like -500 deficit but do what works for you and make sure it's sustainable.
-
I do a few things: 1: Chew gum between meals. 2: High protein intake, 1 gram/LBM - You also need this if you lift weights. 3: Green tea and black coffee. 4: I personally drink 1-1.5 gallons of water a day. (stay hydrated)

I have. It's possible because the higher BF% you are the easier it is to lose weight at the start. I lost about 40lb.

Eat whenever you want, stay within your caloric goal for that day and you're good to go.
-
Exactly. If you want to lean bulk then aim for about 200-300 calories above maintenance calories. You will gain the least fat along with some muscle when lean bulking.
-
If 1600 calories is your caloric deficit, then by exercising you would be roughly at 1100/day. You should aim at about -500 deficit. If you feel good and losing weight then stick to your plan!

1400-1500 sounds right. If you exercise then you can an extra 100-200. Make sure you weigh your food, it's easy to under/over-estimate.
