I have 3 weeks before I have my job interview for the new lifeguard position. They made an exception for me to proceed with the job interview because I'm only 15 but I need to be 16. So I want to be at my best for them were going to do a group interview session and I was wondering what I could do to cut fat fast but preserve my muscle? I dropped 60 pounds before eating at like 600 calorie deficit then doing 400 calories of exercise. But I want to preserve my muscle right now. I'm eating at 250 calories below my maintenance calories. Then 300 calories from weights (15x165=2475-250-300=1925 calories) I'm 5'9 165 lbs 17% body fat. With about 13.2kg of fat left according to the tabita scale. I cut carbs lower and I'm trying to drink 8 cups of water a day. Do you think I should eat 500 calories less than maintenance and do my exercise ? That would make me around 700-800 calorie deficit
