    depleting carbs? Need a lil help

    I have been depleting my carbs for the last two weeks.. I have been going as low as 20g of carbs/day..right now Im probably 9% (maybe 10), my question is how low do you think I ( or the average guy) can get my bf% in the next 18 days..I am going on vacation in 18 days and would like to be as lean as possible when Im there.I have only been eating lean meats every two hours and broccoli and asparagus 2-3 times per day for my carbs. Right now Im at 215lbs and would like to get below 200... Any help I would really appreciate it..

    If you are 215 and 10% you have about 194lbs of lean. You would need to drop 10lbs of bodyfat with no loss of lean to hit 6%. No way you can do that in 2 1/2 weeks.
    How many days in a row are you staying at 20grams of carbs before you cycle them up for a day?

    A pound of fat has a caloric value of 3500. Usually 2 lbs a fat per week is the most you can drop if your metabolism is in high gear.
