I suspect you have some kind of autopilot that maintains you at the

If you loose weight you must loose some speed to maintain constant
altitude, if you want to maintain constant
speed you must climb (step climb).

You are right, the is running an autopilot to hold the altitude.
But I would exspect the opposite:
The aircraft loose weight
so I can reduce the angle of attack
so speed will increase
Am I wrong ?
