What's your BMR (basal metabolic rate) and how active are you?

That will give you a better idea of how many calories you are going to be burning vs how many total cals you are taking in (2624)

Don't jump right into going low on your cals. Start off slow with them, then slowly drop a little each week, maybe 100 per week, take it slow. Theres nothing worse than starting right off going 100 percent on your diet, only to hit a plateau and realize that you have now have no room to go down on your cals without feeling like extreme crap, or compromising muscle.

Calories might be fine, but it depends on your activity level.

I would change the number of foods you're eating. You have repeat meals.

I'm not sure about the total calories either, I think it is a wait and see kind of thing. I personally would up fiber intake, either add some Fiber One cereal (1/2 cup=60 calories, 14g fiber, 0 sugar) or a tortilla factory wrap (80cal, 14g fiber, 1g sugar). Try the Peanut butter and banana on a whole wheat wrap, yummy.
I also try to lower the sugar, but aside from the cereal I don't see much to cut except maybe a serving of fruit. I also like whole protein sources better than whey powder, try a can of tuna or chicken instead, tasty.

As for changing up the foods, I don't really like to do this. I find if I eat the same things every day my body likes it better, and I am sure of exactly what I ate and how it affected me. It's why I hate going out for dinner!

Thanks for all of the help so far! It is kind of funny, I actually ate fiber one this morning instead of oatmeal and then i read all of this LOL Keep it coming guys and my BMR is 2392 and i run / walk 4.8 miles almost every night. Thanks again guys!

Yeap, good luck. And keep some heavy/powerful moves in your workout routine to spare muscle, as you will definitely lose weight on that diet....
