Need to cut down

[anarki]

I weigh in at 169 and I'm decently defined. I want to slim down my midsection. I can see my abs when I breathe in and out but not when I'm just relaxed or flex. I also love handles anyone know of a way to get rid of this fat relatively quickly. I want to look better by the 24th of September, I have an appointment of sorts, and I'm wondering if it's an achievable goal.

We need some stats here. (Height, bf%, etc...)

What does your current dietary/cardio approach resemble?

I can see you dropping a couple pounds... but completely losing the love handles will take some time.

Howa bout... post up your diet and what (if any) cardio regime you have going at this time.

I run with SYL sprints once a day usually everyday. I jump rope daily for 5-15 minutes and I'm going to be doing some swimming too since I have access to a pool now. I have just a low calorie diet. Every morning I have egg beaters, a dry turkey sandwich for lunch, cottage cheese as a snack. Usually a nut of some sort as another snack, then either steak, chicken, or fish for dinner. I substitute things when I run low on others. For example sometimes I have yougurt.

I think you are doing fine...... you just need to be patient with the results.
Love handles are tought to kill....... believe me.

That can't be emphasized enough. I've put on quite a bit of lean mass this summer but I've still got some chub around the midsection. My top 4 abs can be felt most of the time and I can see a 6pack after I work my abs really hard. I'm sure I could cut down a bit and be more defined, but I'm comfortable with the little extra I'm carrying.
