Like i said two posts above yours, it was 4kg from his Vuelta weight, not his Giro weight.We can all fantasize about that, but 4kg before the Giro isn't going to happen. Even if it would physically be possible to drop 4kg, it will come at a huge cost to try and do that in month and a bit.
I think he could realistically lose 2kg before the Giro, and as Didinho said, it's possible that they plan on losing a bit more by the last week of the Giro. (Though i'm not convinced losing weight during a GT is something to strive for, Dumoulin actually gained a bit of weight during the Giro he won).
It is also possible the 4kg claim was made either a while ago, or was a situation of a while ago which Bruyneel only heard about recently. Maybe at this moment, it's only 3kg. Maybe the claim was exaggerated and 3.1 kg became "more than three" which became "between 3 and 4" which became "almost 4" which became 4. Who knows.
