    That's almost 4 pounds a week, which is an unhealthy rate of loss. 2 kg could probably be done, but not this.

    I realise it is unhealthy long term but 3 weeks of strict clean eating is not harmful.

    Clean eating isn't relevant to weight loss, a calorie deficit is. And you would need a 1500-2000 calorie deficit every day in order to meet your goal. Yes, that can do some pretty severe damage. You may not even have the energy to enjoy the event.

    5kgs is around 11 pounds if I'm correct which would be a little over 3.5 pounds a week. Unless you have a lot of weight to lose that's going to be almost impossible.

    Is there a reason you need to lose 5kgs in this short amount of time? Do you have to meet a weight limit for something? If not, your best bet is going to be to eat at a deficit and lose what you can in that amount of time and start earlier next time.

    Good luck.
