At a first glance:

- Not enough protein intake for your BW.

- Too much funky stuff here and there. Jam, pickle, wheat bun, American cheese, ketchup and mayo. Not a very solid diet. You need anabolic food to make and maintain lean muscle tissue. That ain't gonna happen with the stuff above. Where is the steak, fish, walnuts, almonds, green vegetables, low GI fruits, EVOO? Your fat and carb sources need to replaced with quality alternatives.

What is your current BF%?

Lose all the bread, and replace with brown rice or something better.

I also agree you need more protien
