Brief Answer:
Some details required.
Detailed Answer:
Hi and thanks for query,
1)Please tell me your height age and sex?
If you know your body fat percentage you can mention it.
You have to take 100 calories less then your maintainance calories.
I would provide you with a breakdown of macros but please provide the required details.
2)For fat loss best way is hill walking,You have to run on a elevated surface like tread mill.
Pulse rate around 85% of (220-AGE) is very good for fat burning.
Please tell me you age also?
3)Only with proper nutrition supplements like yohimbine,Conjugated linoleic acid would help.
Without perfectly designed workout and diet no use of taking any supplements.
Please provide the details asked.
Waiting!

Hello again ,
By your details your macros are
Carbs 115 gm
protein 115 gm
fats 26 gm
Divide them into 4 meals.
If you will follow this then only you can use supplements like yohimbine 8mg once daily before breakfast with conjugated linoleic acid one tablet before work out.
You could take 3 scoobs of whey protein 8 hourly with steamed chicken breast,egg whites.
2 Loafs of brown bread in morning(25 gm carbs) 50 gram raw brown rice(35gm) and 50 gram aata chapati(35 gm carbs)
Fat 26 gram you would take from 1 scoob of peanut butter in morning and evening.
30 minutes of cardio every alternate day with 5 days weight training.
Aim losing 0.5 kg per week.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Medically, yohimbine is a pre-synaptic alpha-2-adrenergic blocking agent, also referred to as an alpha 2-adrenergic antagonist. This action increases sympathetic nervous system activity, and can result in increasing the amounts of epinephrine (also known as adrenaline) and norepinephrine in the blood stream which burns brown fat.
CLA also help burning peripheral fat.
Minimum 3 months it should be used.
Thanks
