wot you need to do first is post up your stats...height,weight etc.
your current diet.
and then the guys can help you from there!

Hey,

I guess you could start by dropping the biscuits, sugar puffs and mayo.

I have a really bad diet, and from reading on the forum one thing I've picked up is that the most important thing is your diet, i.e. what you eat. So you need to eat some quality food, and variety of it. I'm still trying to drop the donuts!

Good Luck!

Yah diet for fat loss.
Drop some of those carbs and up the protein alot.
Biscuits, sugar puffs, all the processed stuff just dont eat, drop the sugar too.
I would try to get down 5 meals with a protein in each one of those meals.
You can have some carbs and some fat, but make sure you are getting protein with each meal.

Doing restance training (weights) is awesome for fat loss.

drop the suger puffs and mayo and biscuits (as Aris Mesh said)..
you're awake from 5am and dont eat a proper meal till 9.30.. thats 4 n half valuable eating hours that are waisted.. bring that bowl of oats forward and have that b4 going to work.. if you can eat whilst working as some of us can then take a tuna pot salad or something like that.. (i usually take a tuna & pasta salad or prawn & pasta salad) but have a look around there's such a variety..
then at 9.30 you can make that a tuna sandwich or a chicken breast meal or something.. try to aim for high in protein meals and low in fat.

wot do u do for work??

basically you're aim is to eat moderate meals frequently (i'd say every 2 n half - 3hrs) so aim for about 5-6 meals a day, high in protein and low in fat..
also wen u can at work or wherever sitting down watching the footy or something take a handfull of nuts for good fats, have a good vitamin & mineral tablet and stock up on protein shakes, aim for 2-3shakes a day when possible to bump up the protein (look for a shake that has zero fat).

I'd say aim for 200g daily protein intake as for the rest bump for hackskii he's much more advanced on it all.

Goodluck
