When a plane experiences a decrease in weight must there also be decrease in lift? I'm thinking the answer is yes in order to maintain equilibrium.

Yes. Lift must equal weight at equilibrium. Lift can be lowered by increasing altitude, lowering speed, decreasing the angle of attack, or changing aileron/flap settings
Great! thanks a lot.
