How does one lose 30% BF and how long does it take?

Well, I know how one loses BF in general. That is from eating at a deficit (Preferably clean) and lifting. But I guess my general question is, losing 30% bf a realistic and achievable goal? I'm kind of guesstimating my current BF. The last time I checked, I was at 47. My overall goal is to be 18%.

I lift 3 times a week and I'm going to start doing my cardio on my off days when my ankle heals. I sprained it pretty badly and I have to get an MRI.

People as my why 18% is my ideal and my reasoning is that I like the physique. I want to be a personal trainer and that is just what I prefer.

I'm hovering around in the 190s, weight wise, but I don't really care about weight, just more the bf percentage. I know slow and steady wins the race and it takes about 3 months to see physical results, but I guess I want a general time frame, despite that everyone is different. So for those of you who have lost significant amounts body fat, what did you do and how long did it take?

Thanks!
