BootCamp is coming, I was told to drop 5 inches off my belly FAST.
I'm 6'7 and 265, I cut Calories to 1200, Carbs to 70 and Fat Grams to 40. I also walk/run 4 miles twice a day (8 total miles) and drink NO caffeine, only 8 glasses (64 oz.) of water a day......is this OK or too drastic?
If there is anything else I should be doing, please advise!

I forgot to add that the 8 miles a day is 7 days a week, on top of 40 jumping jacks/40 sit-ups a day (7 days a week as well)

You are eating too few calories. Your body is probably going into "fight or flight" mode. 1200 calories a day when you are running 8 miles is only going to make your body hold on to the fat it's got. You aren't eating enough to fuel your runs therefor your body is tapping into carbohydrate and protein stores, not fat. If you up your calories by another 400 or so a day you'd get better results. Also, up your protein intake to about 20% of your daily diet and up your carbs some. If you aren't getting enough carbs you're body is only going to hold on tighter to the ones you do eat and will essentially store them as fat.

When I was in the Army we would have to do the check in every year, The first couple of years were no problem, then I started to bulk-up some, in order to keep the inches off I would do body rapping. It is safe and it helps with the inches.
As for the rest 40 sit-ups is nothing, you should be adding 5 every two weeks. Running is good, so is swimming and arobics. Yes we Army people do Arobics. Drink more water, you should be drinking about 10 or more a day if you are working out a lot, you don't want to dehydrate. Also cut back on meat, carbs are good before a work out. Enjoy BootCamp, I did.

The only true way to lose it is to RUN RUN RUN RUN RUN for probably about a year at least an hour or so a day. If you really want to lose it do cardio and sit up and push ups work those muscles. Don't use steriods or surgery that is only momentary it will come back. You feel better when you do it yourself. GOOD LUCK !!!!

It is mostly NOT your fault, if you need to lose weight. The way you have been taught to eat is responsible for making obesity the number one health problem in the world (according to Atlantic Monthly magazine) replacing hunger and infectious disease. So you are a victim of this pandemic (epidemic). You need to re-learn how to eat so you can become thin.
Find out about fastest way to lose weight, gradual ways to lose weight, most effective exercise and anti-water. Lose bodyfat and retained water which also makes you a lot fatter (bloated). Plus click on "Pure Water" to make sure the water you drink doesn't hurt you. Most important-- make sure to read the last "fat loss tip", first before anything else, to see the number one food that causes Americans to be fat.

Homeopathic Treatment for Excessive Fat and Weight :-
PHYTOLACCA BERRY's Mother Tincture is perhaps the safest and sure fire way of loosing excessive fat around abdomen. With Phytolacca Berry once you loose the excessive fat and weight you don't get it back because you body takes care of itself after that and keeps you from gathering up excessive fat. It is prescribed after having a baby too, to get the tummy to loose its flab and to make it flatter and tighter. And after loosing weight with this you don't get flabby it tightens up the flab and skin along with helping your body to shed the excessive accumulation of fat around the girth
The dosage is 15 to 20 drops of the tincture in half a cup of hot water thrice a day half hour before or after meals.
Avoid Chocolates, Coffee, Mints, Red Meat and Carbonated and Alcoholic drinks while taking Homeopathic Medicines. You have to take it for at least 30 to 45 days after that you start to feel the results.
To the best of my knowledge its the safest and the most sure fire way of loosing fat and weight and keeping it of for keeps. Excellent remedy for Obese people who cant seem to shed weight despite trying.
Homeopathic Remedies can be found at all Major Herbal Stores or could be bought on line, In most of the world Homeopathic remedies are quite cheap and easy to find and they do not need a prescription.
Take care and God Bless !

When boredom, depression, or perhaps stress causes cravings, find a nonfood way to meet them such as getting a walk, calling a friend, going for a bath, reading a book, or perhaps doing some yoga.
