Thanks - got a couple of points though, becuase I have to keep this diet as enjoyable as possible to keep me motivated.

Is there another alternative to oatmeal? Everyone here seems to have it, but I cant stand it. Isn't a high fibre breakfast with a protein shake good enough?

When you say 'avoid the flavoured yogurts' - do you mean everything apart from the natural stuff? I get these yogurts that have only 45 kcal per pot, including 4.8grams of protein. They are really tasty, and help to keep you motivated when everything else you eat is so repetitive.

As far as the workout goes, I am now commiting to 3 low intensity runs a week. I am obliged to play football 3 times a week - they are high intensity, and includes alot of sprinting. Finally, when I workout with weights, I work to fatigue. I know that with a calorie defecit, I wont gain muscle, but will the nature of the workout, and assumed rise in growth hormone help to change my body composition significantly (i.e. - lose the love handles)?
