Burning The Fat ?!

[GETMEBODIED]

Hi all! Thought this would be a great way to monitor progress and most importantly start getting some feedback and support!
I started the gym 7 weeks ago (beg. May).
I was tired (literally) of being out of shape and using my youth and being tall and looking ok in my clothes as an exscuse to eat what I want when I want and however much I want!! I was active as a child up to my teen albeit always a little chubby. Needless to say, my jiggly bits and little rolls when I sit down has become a pain in the u know!
My plan of attack; I started off doing full body wights 3 days a week followed by 45 mins. cardio and a couple days outside of weights in doing taebo. I cleaned up my diet and drank plenty of water! I think I lost 7lb. in the first two weeks! Bu no inches.
I started rereading up on fitness and nuitrition and a friend put me onto this site which helped in my research! I stopped doing so much cardio fter my weights realising I was possibly undoing all my weight training! The past two weeks (weeks6-7) I have been doing Upper/Lower 4-day split, I do only 20-30 mins of cardio after weights, H.I.I.T varies with cross trainer, wave machine or some skipping at different speeds and jumping jacks. After a binge last weekend from a family gathering and little exercise to at least counterbalance the damage! I have started doing 50 mins Taebo in the morning followed by my weights session in the afternoonevening and the H.I.I,T cardio session from above.

A sample daily menu;
.................................................. ..................................................
Cardio on empty stomach
x1 Hydroxycut
Breakfast; 1or 1/2 cup Fruit porridge w/skim milk and some water, Green tea
.................................................. ..................................................
Mid-Morning; Some nuts x 1 Apple or banana
.................................................. ..............................................
Lunch; Quinoa (Its a South American grain rice subsitute & mostly protein!), baby spinach, 2 tbs. cottage cheese, bake chicken, 3 olives & 1tbsp. pesto)
.................................................. .............................................
Gym - Weights & 20-30mins H.I.I.Tcardio
.................................................. ............................................
x1 Protein shake/ x1 Hydroxycut/ x1 Flax seed oil capsule /. milk Thistle
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Snack; pc. of fruit banana or apple, nuts
.................................................. .............................................
Dinner; 1 cup or 2 of Quinoa, macrel/tuna fish or chicken, pesto, cottage cheese, mixed salad, several raisins
.................................................. ................................................
Desert; 1 tbsp. Natural peanut butter and maybe a little some dried fruit or goji berries
.................................................. .................................................
I try and drink at least 2-3 ltr.water a day and Netlle or green tea
Sometimes if I get a hungry bug in the evening or afer gym, I have 1/4 a cup of oatmeal but am trying to do away with any carbs of an evening!

I felt alot better this week! My stmach seemed to go down, however! I have not lost any inches??? Any answers or suggestions as to why? I read in Body-for-life that some women dont start seeing significant changes till after week which is what I'm on (albeit I am not on the BFL plan!).
I have lost 10lbs to date,I have had different B.M.I readings from machines and not the calippers which I feel havent been as accurate so am unsure of the reading. But ,do I just carry on as I am now and hope my metabolism will start to perk up? iI have had the odd das since starting of cheat meals or snacks but the sample menu above is how I have been eating this week and will carry on.
I need to get better at timing my meals even thou I manage to replenish my nutrients within 30 mins of the gym. I need to eat more greens solids like broccoli, asapargus, etc maybe. I have been eating baby spinach leaves and mixed salad so..
I have definate muscle shape showing in my back, bicep and obliques area bu still have fat covering them and no inches lost??? Ok maybe 1 inch off my abs but How is this? I have been told I look slimmer and even tighter by a gym budy. Is it possible Im putting on the muscle and its yet to burn the fat??! Please help!

i like the way you are keep track of what's going on, on your road to a new body. you know what sucks? we are all gun ho at first. but its not the battle that counts its the war, and most die in battle. i think you should give your self 4 weeks and measure again i bet you loss 1 to 2 inchs. also mabye you should try a carb cycling diet it works well with me. it should go something like this.

day 1
breakfest
1 cup oats with water
protein shake water or 6oz of chicken or can of tuna.
mid lunch
tuna with 1 cups peas and little bit of watermellon.
lunch
chicken with broccily
mid dinner
protein shake with little carbs
dinner
chicken no carbs

day 2
brakfest
protein shake with a bit of watermellon
mid lunch
chicken with broccily
lunch
tuna with green peas
mid dinner
protein shake with no carbs
dinner
chicken
day 3 is same as day 2
then on day 4
start at day 1 and the cycle repeats.

very important
broccily is a very fibous food that makes verything flow, get my drift?
also if you work out in the moring, you can get the oats on carb day before the work out, also best way to make oats in in bowl in the microwave with water for 20 sec no more or it becomes a fat moving carb. if you eat it kind of crunchy if takes the body longer to break down.
