Cardio is not necessary it just helps burn more calories, you just lower your calories by a certain amount.
E,G if you need 2500 calories a day, take 2200 instead and every day you 300 calories below diet you, it will cause
you to lose weight. Also, just keep your workout the same that you used to bulk-up, but only change your diet.

Go on a deficit, so like the poster above said, if your normal intake is 2500, then go on a deficit of 500 and only have 2000 a day, so count your calories. There are also calculators online were you can put hieght wieght ect and it tells you how many calories you should be on. Go onto google and search for calorie calculator as i can not post links.
Keep doing your normal routine too.

Not especially but you still want to avoid processed foods. I wouldn't recommend cutting more than 10% of your caloric intake at once. You could cause your body to store more fat because of the caloric deficit. Also when cutting look at your intake of protein, carbohydrates, and fats and cut them equally for the best transition. If you are at 3k calories right now I would go down to 2700 this week, and next week drop to 2400 and so on. I don't recommend going past 2k calories a day while working out. Your quality of life will go to **** with that few calories... Just remember to take it in steps for the best transition!
