PLEASE ADVISE IS WELCOME
 
Add vegetables to your diet - a variety will be most helpful. Pick a different color each day so as to maximize the number of nutrients you're getting. I'd also check the number of calories you're taking in, to make sure it's enough to power your workouts.
 
The diet looks good, I was going to comment about the veg but you already brought those up. The sources of food looks good, but it can be hard to tell with the calories because that can vary with portion size.

Watch the sugars and other highly process carbs that can be hidden in things like soft drinks, and keep up a good mix of cardio and strength training and it shouldn't be a problem for you to hit your goal.

If your body agrees with it, take the whey pre-work out otherwise a post work out whey shake will be good for rebuilding after exercise.
 
Do you know how many calories you're taking in? Try going to and entering what you eat every day. I say that because I think your diet looks odd but I can't put my finger on what's missing. Maybe it's just that the diet looks low on calories.

I think you're relying on whey too much for your protein source, why not just eat more? That much whey might give you the s**ts
 
here what iv had so far today:
weetabix / skimmed milk
2 scoops whey with water
can of tuna mixed with lettuce and chilli source
gonna take my dog on long hour walk now
and ill have pasta/dolmio/high protein cheese 2 hours before i go for my RPM cycle class at 6pm (its a very hard class!)

hows it look today so far?
