i want to drop 10% body fat?

Question

is this a reasonable goal to happen in 2 months? i lift heavy weights and do cardio 6 days a week. i am currently 27% body fat. my bmi is normal. i am female.

Answer 1

its not possible to do in 2 months because you can only lose 1-2lbs of fat a week if you are losing more its not fat its water weight and muscle
find daily calorie intake calculator on the net, enter all your stats and it will tell you how many calories you need a day to maintain, take off 300-400cal off that number and thats how much you need to lose.
eat 5-6 small meals a day (eat every 2-3 hours - it optimizes your metabolism)
5-8 servings of fruit and veggies a day
8 glasses of water
have complex carbs for breakfast - they give you energy
have protein (lean meat, legumes etc) for dinner - repairs muscle
cardio exercise 4-6 times a week for 30-50min (ideally 45min because the first 20-30min body burns carbs and only then starts burning fat), light weight training (more muscle=faster metabolism)
dont consume foods that are made of white flour (white bread, cakes, pasta etc.), sugar loaded foods (cookies, icecream, candy etc) and nothing fried, oily.
ofcourse you can spoil yourself once in a while with a little treat:)

Answer 2

It will be very difficult to do this in only 2 months. But you can get on your way to 17% body fat. That's a tough goal, mine's 15%. I want to be in the elite athlete range of body fat percentage. I'm currently at about 21%. I do cardio 4 days a week and 2 days of weight training, one day yoga. All of my routines are at least an hour long, plus I do a 15 minute ab ripper on my weight training days and yoga is 1 1/2 hours. On training days I may also run a couple miles to burn a few more calories. I always take one day to rest or stretch a week. Cutting out a large amount of fat from your diet will also help, especially in the beginning when you're starting your training. If you want a program to help you, I STRONGLY recommend Beachbody's P90X program with Tony Horton. He's a great trainer, keeps you motivated and the workouts are TOUGH. But I've got sexy shoulders and arms now, I've never had that until now. I wish you all the luck.
