OK well a few things to start:
Excercise:
As most of us know cardio is great to build indurance, strength and toning but it is how you do your cardio that counts. Like mentioned by Lizzy I believe in this post interval training will help shed off the cals faster than steady straightfoward cardio. You need to push yourself every single time. When your ready to give up is when you really start to burn fat. The hardest part is what counts the most (Unfortunatly). Although cardio is a good start strenght training (Weights) is an absolute must if you want to shed the pounds. The more muscle you have the more calories are burned day to day.
Hmmmmm I could go on forever about excersises routines etc etc but unless I get a request I will cut it short. All said is both weights and cardio are important to loose fat.

Diet:
Fruits - (As the hot topic here) in my many years of nutrition expertise fruit is great for you but when trying to loose weight I recommend keeping a close grip on your intake. Fruit is natures desert. It is packed with natural sugars and although ok for you needs to be monitored. I tend to only recomend fruit before lunch excluding possibly a banana before a training session or an apple in the afternoon.

As for the diet above from the original post as most mentioned "MORE PROTEIN" is a must. You should be eating a more balanced meal plan - I would be happy to come up for one for you if needed. Nutrition is the number one most important factor when it comes to weight loss. Most people on diets eat to little. This is counter productive. Your body needs food to build muscle. Muscle uses more calories. Without the food your body uses muscle for energy and deplits your muscles resulting in fewer calories burned.
