I have 20 days left until my holiday. In the last 6 weeks or so I've been eating VERY well and doing kayla itsines bbg. I'm starting to do more cardio - attempting every day/every other day. I'm not overweight at all I just carry my excess on my tummy so wanted to shift a lot of it off, I'm about 60-64 and 5ft7. I'm not actually sure what i weigh as I didn't want to monitor my progress via weight as Kayla's bbg builds muscle too.
Anyway I'm happy with my progress but would just like to shave a bit more off, any ideas to blitz some fat in the next 20 days?

    eat at a deficit, aim to lose 1lb/week while lifting, full body workout 3 times/week.

    Figure out your weight, set a goal of about 1 lb loss to MFP, count calories religiously. And realised that yes, you will lose "only" something like 3-5 lbs in only 20 days.

    You want to lose some extra pounds but don't want to weigh yourself - that's a bit of a conflict!

    If you are happy with your progress so far then enjoy three more weeks of progress and don't have unreasonable expectations of what you can achieve in such a short timescale.

    I don't think you can "blitz" fat. That's not how it works. Fat disappears from wherever it wants to - you can't spot reduce.
