What are your stats? Protein intake seems a bit high, but hard to tell without your stats. I would cut the dairy and fruit if I were you, or keep it to one serving each in the first 2 meals. Too much sugar IMO...

Since your bf% is over 40% you might want to drop the carbs below 100 grams a day (maybe more) and really focus on the cardio. Make sure to calories in don't exceed calories out. Very important!
I'm sure you realize that you have alot of work cut out for yourself, but there are alot of knowledgeable ppl on this board that are willing to dispense good advice if your willing to put in the work. Remember there's no miracle pill out there...just hard work. Make a plan and stick it! Best of luck...Usualsuspect

Over 40 thats alot. But mine was about 35 and now is about 12-13. If I were you, I think 2500 calories is too low for you, maybe 3000 is more reasonable. I would start at 200g of carbs then up 50 each day til day 4 then cycle down. For example:

Day 1 200g
Day 2 250g
Day 3 300g
Day 4 350g
Day 5 300g
Day 6 250g
Day 7 200g

Find your BF%. Lets say its 40%. DO this until you stop losing weight or set a mini goal for yourself like to 30%. Once you get to 30%, have day 1 start with 150g of carbs and cycle that. I feel this way allows you to get in that extra carb meal you been craving within a few days instead of carbing up every week and possibly indulging. Before you go on this diet though, start to do cardio 2-3 times for a week, then 3-4 times the next week, then 4-5 times the third week THEN start your diet.

Enough has been said in the above posts. Listen to them. BTW, make sure what carbs you do get come in the form of Veggies, maybe a little fruit, and whole grains. No instant anything, milk carbs, sugars.........
