Holy Crap

FNF, that is a huge difference.

Everyone else better be put on notice that you intend to win the IMPC.

With a great start like that I can't wait to see you when it's finished.

Way to go!!!

By the way - it wouldn't be fun at all, but you could lose the 20 lbs in 4 weeks.

FitnFirm,

You are a such a pro at this! I'm with HybridX, I think you can drop the weight before your show. And, I KNOW you're bringing your "A" game in November.
You've done a great job so far. Not only that, but you've set a good example to the rest of us BB noobs. Keep up the good work!

Aim to lose about 5 to 8 lbs. of water pre-show. If you're accurate about needing to lose 20, then you'll be down to losing 12 to 15 lbs. That works out to 3 to 4 lbs. per week.

You'd need to do about 2 hours of cardio a day, and cut your calories down to about 800/day right away.

See how well you do in the first week, and then adjust from there.

In the 4th week, you should lose the water in the last 3 days, and then carb up in the last 24 hours.

As your carb goes down with your calories, you're going to drop some weight and you'll feel weak with your muscles - but they'll re-inflate when you carb up.

I'd consume the bulk of your daily carbs about 1.5 hours before your workout, and cut out all carbs after 5pm. Say a 1/2 small yam for lunch, and steamed brocoli/caulifower (no butter/cheese/salt) for dinner.

Be careful if you choose a fat burner on the really low calories, you might feel sick. That depends on your system, and you'll have to check it out.

Anyways - it all sounds good in theory, but it will be very hard.

Personally - I'd love to see you achieve it and get in your show in the condition you want to be in.

Can you change your foods up? If you've been getting your protein from chicken, try switching to fish. Trying switching all of your food group sources, but keep the same %-ages and calorie count. Just a hunch that might help.

Have you cut your salt intake? Maybe you could try 48-72 hours of ketosis.

Do you do consistent cardio (bike all the time, etc?). You might want to change that as well.

Convince your body it's in a completely different routine and has to keep shedding lipids.
