this sounds like a plausible weaning process.  

When I've weaned off of metoprolol in the past I was always told to cut the pill in half, take it like that for a week, then cut it in half again and take it for a week and once you get to 1/4 tablet for a week you can stop.

I've also heard that you can wean off by doing a low dose then a skipped dose for awhile, so this should work for you.
