I don't know if I should re-tailor my diet (ie, should my diet now be N calories less because I now weigh ~250 instead of ~270) or just keep at it with more or less the same, because my muscle mass seems to have increased? All your responses have been helpful :}
Yeah, aside from my bounce back up, I'm in the same boat. I'm concerned that cutting calories is going to hurt whatever muscle development I've had going on.

In my case, while I've stopped watching what I'm eating and I've put back on 30 pounds, I'm also lifting heavier weights on the machines than I've ever lifted before. While I don't feel more muscular or stronger, I don't know why that would be happening unless I'd been shorting myself in calories before.
