Default switch up routine?

Hey,

It's been about a month since i started my push/pull routine and my athletic advisor, aka my boyfriend was telling me that i should look at switching up my routine so my body doesn't become used to the routine.

Here's what I'm doing now:
A: 3x8
Leg Press (machine)
Dips
Low Back (machine)
Chest Press (machine)
Calves (seated, machine)
Military Press
Abs
HIIT

B: 3x8
Chinups
Leg ext. (machine)
Leg curl (machine)
Rows
Calves (seated, machine)
Biceps
Abs
HIIT

I have to use the assist machine for both chinups and dips... sadly. lol.

we were thinking of changing leg press for deadlifts (which im not terribly fond of, but whatevs.) and leg ext/curl for squats. don't think my gym has a standing calve machine to switch that up. also thinking of doing preacher bicep curls... should i also change the sets/reps to 4x5 or 5x5?

What do you guys think?

And the main goal is weight-loss (bikini weather :P)
