Alright, I've had enough of stalling. I go really well for a month, and then I give up and eat **** and feel depressed for the next month, and repeat. I want to start a personal challenge, and I need your help.
I am 5'5".
I weigh 54kg or 119 pounds.
I am 22% bodyfat.
I am a skinny flabby, and I want to be a fit-toned.
I know weight loss and fitness is a lifelong commitment, one I have been good with in the past, but never as good as I have really hoped.
I want to set myself a challenge to see how much I can possibly transform my body in the next 4-8 weeks, or one-two months.
Is anyone able to give me an example of a straight-forward, clean as possible diet, and daily weights and cardio exercise program.
I want to strip fat and build muscle as quickly as possible before Summer comes around again (it's Winter here in Australia).
I only have time for 1 hours gym time per day 6am - 7am, as I work from 8am - 9pm every day. I have to prepare my meals in advance for each day.
I would really appreciate a detailed and informative reply and suggestions with anyone who can dedicate some time to me. Thanks so much.

I really don't think there's a need to restrict carbs so much and why suggest cardio everyday when she has already pointed out that she is skinny.
OP focus on weights more than cardio (limit cardio to 2 HIIT sessions per week for now) to gain muscle.
You don't need to limit carbs just get most from fibrous veggies.
Eat every 2-3 hours with protein, fat & carbs at each meal.
Protein: chicken, turkey, fish, shellfish, lean red meats, whey, eggs, cottage cheese, milk
Fats: flax oil, almonds, other nuts, seeds, avocado, olive oil, fish oil, egg yolks
Carbs: fibrous veggies, brown rice, barley, quinoa, spelt, wholegrain bread/pasta, oats, fruit (bananas are good post workout).
I suggest that you read the stickies on the training and nutrition section as that will build up your knowledge on workouts and on diet."Success comes before work...only in the dictionary"

I agree with ozigal, focus on lifting and cleaning up your diet. Your weight is fine so probably what you are lacking is lean muscle mass. I wouldn't try to lose any fat for awhile. Just eat and lift. You can adjust your caloric intake to keep additional fat gains to a minimum, or even take a slight fat loss. Cardio a couple of times a week is fine but no way should you do it every day. Likewise carbs can be eaten throughout the day. Even at bedtime. It's a myth that they'll turn to fat after some witching hour.
