I would ditch the tea spoon of sugar and replace it with a banana and fresh and fruity yougart.

Wheres all the food :shock:

You gotta fuel the machine when dieting! I actually eat more when I diet, eating more speeds up the metabolism.... just a matter of keeping the food clean.

dude you need some solid foods.....real meat, a couple dozen eggs a day, brown rice etc....

Instead of having 25g of whey at 16.00 .I would change it 15.00 to having rice cakes toped with tuna,cummber and apple instead.

Rice cakes?you're kidding right? you may as well just spoon white sugar into your mouth. There's absolutely nothing redeeming about nasty old ricecakes except as a PWO high GI carb. They're devoid of any actual goodness yet people seem to think they are good for fatloss. If you're trying to spike blood sugar or insulin PWO then fine, but not as part of a day to day weight loss diet.

I am not kidding around Flex.I happen to have rice cakes part of my eating plain plus I enjoy them.

I enjoy eating chocolate, ice-cream and the occasional steak n cheese pie. I think I will integrate these foods into my eating plan...

that's what i thought.

I eat more carbs than that when im in the last 4 weeks of a diet.

In my opinion when you are dieting to lose a lot of weight you need to stretch it out over a decent period of time.

Like say if you want to lose 20 kg of fat do it over a 4 month period.

And i would flag the shakes completely, and just eat 6 small portion meals a day.

ie:

meal 1 . 6 eggs and one cup of mixed vege

meal 2 . i large can of tuna

meal 3 . 200 gms of chicken breast and half a cup of brown rice

meal 4 . 1 large can of tuna and 1/2 cup low fat cottage cheese

meal 5 . same as meal 3

meal 6 . same as meal 1

the only time i would have a shake would be after a workout with soy milk and a banana.

I would also make sure i'm drinking heaps of water and supplement with vitamin c, multivitamins and omega capsules.
