First thing is eliminate "junk" foods from your diet..sugar, high carb drinks, soda, etc., bascially a good idea is anything with 5 gr. of sugar or more ditch it. Your goal is to maintain bodyweight, and slowly drop bf. A big calorie drop right off the bat usually causes a big loss in muscle. You want to add calories(with nutrient density) to your diet, and supplements will be needed. I would keep cardio at a minimum the first few weeks, too much cardio too soon and your body will have nowhere to go and will adapt too soon. If you have the time, a 16 week period, depending on your current bodyfat, would be optimal for a good solid fat loss while retaining as much lean tissue as possible. Hope this helps. It is a good start, and time proven.
