-figure out a good macro ratio...if carbs are hard on you lower the percentage of them,
-limit catabolic activity, cardio...keep up the weight training, crossfit that sort of thing. Cardio is for general well being, if your diet is in check you won't ever need to use a cardio machine to get your bf down.

No one can guarantee what works for you as all people are different but limiting stopping/cardio can really help although every personal trainer in the world will try to tell you different. Cardio on a calorie defecit can literally destroy your muscle and your metabolism making it impossible to lose fat.
if your protein intake is high enough and your causing stimulation/damage to muscle tissue on a cal deficit you will retain most of your mass.you can still lose a lot of fat if you eat more.as in if you've been dieting for a number of weeks and arnt seeing results,the best way to combat it would to ramp up calories for a day to keep the metabolism stoked.
