    What is your goal, fatloss?
    You should consider a diet you can hold for a long time and not just for a period. At first sight it seems like a lot of shakes and little food. Could you lay out your daily intake in macros? Starting point for fatloss is usually 2500-3000kcal a day(for a trained person), with at least 200g protein a day, maybe 40-50g fat and rest from carbs, you think you have that?
    Since youre just starting HRT i think you would start losing fat and get some muscle just by training regularly, no need to go all out, how is your training-history, how long have you trained etc?
