Ok, so I got my weight and body fat measured. Unfortunately, I didn't do this before I started bulking so I can't really tell exactly by how much has my body fat increased but neways...

Weight 82.1 kg (the machine at my gym says 84.20 kgs ...?)
Height 176 cm
Age 21 years

Fat Index 22.1%
Fat Mass 18.1 kgs
Free Fat Mass 64 kgs

My normal weight is between 62-77 kgs. Current Body Mass Index is 26.5kg/m.

I guess the reason my waistline increased was mainly 'coz my bodyfat increased.

I've made some minor changes to my diet just to reduce on my weight gains 'coz I've been gaining more than 2 lbs per week. I've cut down on my pre-workout meal on my off days and cardio days. (pre-workout= .5 cup oatmeal). I'll try this and check my weight day after tomorrow. If it doesn't help i'll think of more changes that I can make.

Anyways, I'd just like to know:
1. Am I right in making these changes to my diet. Is this the right thing to do?
2. What's a suitable body fat % for someone like me who's bulking and not aiming to cut right now.
3. About Ramadan, I'm just going to cut so that I can reduce my bodyfat levels. Will 1 month's time be sufficient?

Thanks!
