    Unless your holiday is in August/September you may have to adjust your expectations a little.

    With only 21lbs to lose a healthy rate of loss is more like 0.5-1lb per week for you. You may drop a little quicker at the start due to water weight coming off and if you incorporate some strength training/ensure you're getting adequate protein you will help to maintain muscle which may improve your body composition/appearance as you lose fat.

    Log accurately (food scale is best)
    Planning meals ahead can be useful for helping stick to your calorie goals
