Holy Crap, what have I done!

Alright brothers, things just got REAL!
I've signed up for my first contest, it's in August so I have a little over 2 months to prep for it. I'm at @16% BF, weighing 210. I'm going to be doing the Physique contest, so I don't need to gain any more mass before the contest (I've seen pics of previous contests, and I've got enough muscle to compete). That being said, I definitely don't want to lose a lot of muscle in the cutting process.
Let the advice flow!

Awesome! It is a blast competing. I contest dieted for my first bodybuilding show in three months at your BF% and did pretty well so I know you can do it. To drop body fat you will need to run a calorie deficit each week and cut additional calories if your body fat percentage stalls out. It will look like you are loosing size/muscle but remember that fat is over, under, and within muscle as you shed it.
CleyonThanks bro, I definitely need to back off of my 3000cal/day diet, I just want to make sure I do good cuts. Also I will be upping my cardio schedule.
High five buddy! Go kick ass!
CleyonThanks brother, it's going to be an experience, and now that I've paid my money I can't back out!
TxBigBoySerious carb work brother. I'm sure tread or Viking will chime in and say the same and elaborate more on how to do it properly.
May also want to consider sodium loading
CleyonI'm reading about sodium loading now, I really think my diet is pretty solid. Especially with the amount of activity in my day.
CleyonHere is the diet I'm currently on. Please critique it for me...

juiceinatorDrop the pasta. And I'd say milk too.
CleyonI'm going to, and I'm going to also kill the beef, and go chicken only for a while. I think I'll add more veggies to help keep me regular though.
