Ok, re-phrase
Will I be able to reduce my waist size by four inches in two months.

No
Actually, you can do. I lost over 3 st in about a year by doing the following:

a. Eating less
b. Drinking less
c. Running more

Simple really

It is a simple equation* - burn more calories than you consume.

4 inches is quite a lot.
a pound of fat equates to about 1/4 an inch on your waist so you need to lose just over a stone.

36" waist is hardly fat unless you're a slightly-built dwarf, though..

I must admit to GLESSing when I got to 32" waist
