What will this diet do?

[gettinther]

Help, I need someone who knows what they are talking about to tell me how this will diet will do!

I'm 5'8", 160lbs. and found out today i have 26% BODYFAT! I started a diet a week and a half ago. Will this take care of my fat problem? This is the diet I have been on for a week and a half. Have gained 5 lbs in last week & half, but am afraid of looking Fat!

3AM-protein shake (833cal.)

7:30AM-3 eggs scrambled with no-fat pam butter spray
1.5 cups OJ
2 cups of coffee with 2% milk

9AM-3 cups of oatmeal
banana
.5 cups of raisins

( 11:30-12:30 MWF Workout--warmup 5mins, lifting with trainer since middle of March, no aerobic exercise-wanting to bulk up but be LEAN)

12:45- 12 oz tuna with 1.5 TBSP of low fat mayo and dill relish
1 large can of pineapple

6:30-protein shake(833 cal)

7:30 to 11pm ( eat the following "as I can ", it takes a while)
2 chik breast grilled
3 cups white pasta
large salad mix with tomatoes

before bed another protien shake (833 cal)

I REALLY want to look good by Thanksgiving. I've always been about 145 and very lean but started eating lots of junk food to gain weght and went to my stomach. Friend suggested this diet. (he looks fat though, but cheats on diet-a lot)

i think you have the numbers for those protein shakes wrong
833 calories each? most protein-only shakes are about 130 calories, with milk up to 250, weight gain shakes can be as high as 400. if they really are 833 calories each, they really are going to make you fat
in everything else you're eating too much also. i mean if you're trying to bulk they might be ok for a big guy or someone with a real fast metabolism but if you want to lose fat its just not going to work, try cutting out all the carbs, and eat less of everything. have you worked out your calorie requirements for a day? then work out the numbers of what you're acutally eating (buy a calorie counter or find a website with the details)
on that diet you're going to put on a lot of fat because its such a huge amount of food for someone with a lean body mass of 120lb

you may do well with a keto diet which means cutting out most of your carbs

6oz. chicken breast
1 tbsp. all natual peanut butter

( 11:30-12:30 MWF Workout--warmup 5mins, lifting with trainer since middle of March, no aerobic exercise-wanting to bulk up but be LEAN) ????bulking up but lean w/emphesis on fat-loss...not feasible...you need to add low-intensity cardio

12:45- 12 oz tuna with
1 large sweet potato
1 tbsp. all natural peanut butter

6:30-protein shake(833 cal) ??
--50 g protein/ 200cal
