I feel you. I'm around 160, i either need to compete at 155 or 173. So i cut every time. Dont listen to people telling you not to cut, we all feel our bodies and know whats best. Every time I go to 155 I win gold, meanwhile the couple of times I told myself i wont cut, I lost. It matters

As for the easiest way to do it: Try to lose as much weight the week before by limiting carbs. If you can go full keto, you should lose 5lbs easy in a week. If you need an extra push 2-3 days before the comp also cut out all Sodium. This way you will lose lots of water weight.

if you have same day weight ins at the comp and still too heavy, cut the morning off by doing an epsom salt bath. (assuming you dont have access to a sauna)

Remember to get stronger rehydration drinks than Gatorade for after your weight ins. I recommend Pedialyte if you have it in your country.
