Woh Nelly! Slow down: Don't try to do this. To lose this massive amount of weight in this short period of time, you will lose far too much muscle. By the time you hit recruit training you would be weak and unable to perform the required phsycial training. Lose weight in a more moderate manner and then enlist.
