Cardio/diet tips to lose Another 5lbs in 1 month

[Dlachance]

When I went to meps in July, I weighed in at 175lbs. @ 72 inches. At the officd yesterday, I weighed in at 187. My recruiter said I need to lose about 5 lbs. to be safe with the weight. I have more muscle mass, at least more than most of the other recruits there which isn't helping. The max weight is 190 for my height. I had a lot going on in life for a few months and gained quite a bit of weight, and went up to about 195 give or take a few. In the past two weeks, I started doing my cardio again(hard) and dieting. Things I have changed?: zero soda's and fruit juices with the exception of orange. No chips or unhealthy items of that nature, and salt is almost all the way cut out. I am currently drinking around a gallon of water per day. For breakfast, all I consume is water and a 35g protein shake with FFM. About an hour later, I go and lift and do my cardio. Throughout the day, all I've been eating is 96% beef, frozen peas, brown rice(2 1/2 c after cardio, another 2c 2hrs. later)
, brocolli, a romaine salad, a bit of mozzarela cheese, and before bed, cottage cheese.

Can somene help me some tips to lose about another 5lbs. Through my cardio, I've dropped 2 mins off of my 2mile time (18:45 to 16:45) and can pace for about 3-4 miles max before having to stop. What can I do with my diet to help with my weight loss? I leave 5 weeks from now btw

Thanks for any and all input!

Elaborate on this healthy breakfast. Like said, 6ft.

To add also, I have IBS and can't eat certain foods like greasy shit, bananas and raisins etc.

Don't worry about it. They don't weigh you at basic in processing anymore. As long as you can pass your 1-1-1 you're good.

First of all, if youre under max then youre under max. Granted you dont want to hover there. Second you got one crazy diet and youre drinking quite a bit of water, at least a couple pounds is water weight. If you want to drop 5 lbs fast I would go "paleo" i.e. lean meats (beef, fish, chicken, game) veggies etc. No sugar, natural or processed, no alcohol no grains and no legumes. The weight will come off quick. Salt is not your enemy especially with the amount of water youre drinking and as much working out as you're doing.
