Even if you bulk, you'll just need to cut. Even if you cut, you'll decide to bulk again eventually. The order doesn't matter much because it's a life style. Once you reach your goal, you ought to create a new goal.

Personally, in your circumstance, I'd cut till I was 180-190ish over the course of 2 months. Depending on what I looked like, I'd either continue to cut till I reached around BF 15%, or I really felt like I was getting way too weak. From there I'd just decide based on what that ends up being like.

Ask a coach, a doctor, etc though. The fitness sub is solid typically.

Couple of things.

1) you are going to have loose skin

2) Gains? you are probably 2 years away from being even somewhat aesthetically pleasing muscle.

Based on my personal experience, keep burning fat for as long as your body and your mind can handle it.

Take a break if you're plateauing despite modifications in caloric deficit, water, etc, go on maintenance for a couple of weeks and try again.

Personally, I never wanted abs badly, dieted down from 300lb to 200lb aprox, then got sick and tired of cutting and started bulking, that made me waste two years, and even though I got stronger and slightly bigger in that period, I couldn't find joy in those achievements.

Because no matter how little you think about abs, you don't know how bad you want them until you start seeing them. Also start saving up money, as much as you can, from the get go I was sure that I was going to need it for either gyno or loose skin surgery, and now that I'm approaching sub 13% steadily, I'm starting to think that it's gonna be both of them.
