How am i doing? Powerlifting, Bodybuilding, fatloss, food, supplements

So i've been hitting the gym pretty hard and often for over two months now, im in a starters powerlifting program sets of 5x8 5x5 and 3x10 for assists. (is a count down set useful 12-10-8-6?)
i do enjoy the fact i am getting good strength gains, and my mussels are tightening up, however if i were to guess this isnt the best or fastest way to obtain a muscular figure. So since the summer is just around the corner i thought maybe i should switch to focus on my looks more then my strength for a while. Also tempted to try a harsher fatloss supplement like lipo6 or something when my time is running out.

I Eat like a body builder i think, lots protein shakes (isolate) and veggies, some carbs but not alot, mostly cerial, fruit, juice, milk, peanut butter(not a lot) eggs lean chicken, sushi(twice a week at most)

also its my main goal to lose that last 10lbs of fat before summer, i started last week by adding CLA supplement with my meals, and a fat burner Athena by Revaluation (woman's supplement) but i have told it dosnt really matter for now i will give these two some time to see if it helps.

45 Thermobolic Formula (750mg) Green Tea Extract (50% Polyphenols)* L-Tyrosine* Caffeine Anhydrous* Citrus Aurantium (30% Synephrine)* Evodiamine* Insulin Regulator Complex (191mg) Coleus Forskohlii* Lagerstromia Speciose* Magnesium Stearate* 5 �HTP* Pyroxidine HCL* Chromium Picolinate* 3.5 Diido-L-Tyrosine* Other Ingredients: Vitamin C (as Ascorbic Acid), Silicone Dioxide.

I do cardo, High Interval Training that is, 20-25 mins a day, on an eliptica 1min bursts with 2-3 min rest and repeat.

I do take rest days also every 3-4 days

Quesionts: to keep my power lifting could i use the same exercises but up the reps and maybe cut down the weight a little? so like squat 5x10-12 instead of 5x5 or bench 5x10-12 instead of 5x8 ? and shorten my time between sets to like 1-2min max instead of 2-4?

And any other fat burn ideas i should change to get the fat burn faster would be great, i was 250lbs(fat) 5'10" and diet alone knocked me down to 185,(last summer i hit 173 for a week then i was gaing it back quickly) i am 190 now but gained more muscle.
