Need Advice on losing belly fat

[ppp90]

So im a 21 year old male and I currently weigh 190lbs. For about a year now ive bin going to the gym and trying different supplements and workouts but I cant seem to get down to my target weight of 160. Im in decent shape as we speak and am very motivated. The current supplements I take are basic multi vitamin, Hydroxycut Advanced, BCAA-Gludamine powder, and Casin Protein powder(before bed). I have all day every day for the next month to complete my goal. Any advice and help is appreciated. Thanks

Hey man, trying to lose 30 pounds in 30 days is a great way to set yourself for failure. Or did I misread your post?

If you're not losing body fat your diet is probably crap. Do you keep track of your caloric intake daily???

Thanks for fast responses guys. I may be but i have the motivation and resources I just need the advice. Is it even possible? I currently eat around 1000 to 1300 calories a day including the calories from my supplements.

That's way way way too low.

You need to calculate your caloric maintenance requirements and go about 500 under that daily. The weight will come off slowly, but coupled with cardio it will come off. Since you are eating basically nothing, your body is going into starvation mode, slowing your metabolism, and burning the muscle you do have.

500 calories under your maintenance requirement.

Ive also changed my eating habbits to 6 small meals a day and when I workout I circuit train.
