I'll chime in:
Your weight (or BMI) is strictly a function of calories taken in vs. calories burned. PERIOD.
Noteworthy is that muscles continue to burn calories long after you stop exercising. Therefore more muscle burns calories, so don't ignore weights and/or lifting.
Biologically, your goal is damn near impossible in the time frame you're shooting for, but you never know.
I would recommend an hour of aerobic (running is best, walking, swimming, dancing0 and 45 mins of aerobic (weights, sprints, ?) each day, three days in a row then take one day off. Repeat.
This diet below is very low fat, and would be very difficult to stay on for 60 days, but should shed pounds.
An aggresive diet like this is very hard on your body. You need to realize that losing weight is not linear. That last ten pounds lost will be much harder to lose than the first ten.
Good luck. I hope you have a "Plan B" if you don't get that Contract.

My former room mate was a trainer and he always put ppl on this diet and his clients would lose weight like crazy...
Raw food only:
As much fruit, nuts (Unsalted) & vegetables as you want.
No sugar (cut out soft drinks and replace with water).
Nothing processed (no cheese / hot dogs etc)
Eat fish (Raw if you like sushi). This is where you'll get most of your protein (and from the nuts above)
Drink tons of water.
You will start to drop off pounds if you stick to this.
