Diet - Sound Good?

OK, I am a student so I don't usually have too much freedom about what I eat during the school hours, but here is a usual plan:

Breakfast:

1 cups of oats with 125 ml of milk and a scoop of whey protein.

Lunch: (eaten late for lunch (about 3pm)):

1 cups of oats with 125 ml of milk and a scoop of whey protein.

Dinner:

Some meat (usually chicken) and potatoes, and green vegetables.

Now that I write it down it seems a bit bad,

but I just need some pointers.

Can anyone improve this appauling mess?

(If I eat this good diet and train hard with the weights, can I shift some body fat over to muscle, as at the moment I want to get rid of body fat, but gain muscle (I'm not doing competitions or anything, so the time limit is whatever is needed really)).

(Also, I know there is a lot of questioning here, but, what do you do personally to keep yourself motivated while following the strict diet. I usually make big plans about things, but then don't do them, and then it annoys me as I feel like I have failed).

Thanks.

.

No you can't. To get rid of bodyfat you have to take in less calories than what your maintenance calories are. To gain muscle you need to do the opposite. Its two completely different diets.

Pick a goal, design a diet around that goal based on what your body metabolism is.
