Heres a typical day.

0700 wakeup
either a 1h walk or 30min running excercise (depends on my morning mood and weather gf wants to join or not)
0800 breakfeast:
porridge oats 1dl enriched with about 1/2dl of soyflour
1 banana, some raisins and 1-2dl soymilk

1100 one fruit as a snack

1300 lunch
this varies alot obv but an example would be something like a bowl of lentilsoup and a piece of bread with hoummus and some vegs.

1600
fruit as snack or perhaps a coffe latte

1800
kickboxning excercise one hour (I do this 4 times a week, the other days I do some homemade training program, mostly different variants of pushups, situps, squats and the like)

2000
some dinner options
#1 Salad with bulgur, quinoa, couscous or something like that as base, then alot of vegs, tofu, chickpeas, kidneybeans, some olivoil, you get the picture. I usually have some bread with the salad as well.

#2 Pasta with tomatosauce with vegs and tofu or lentils

2200
a fruit or a light snack.

Basically I should get something like 2k kalories/day with this diet. (This is basically what I eat all the time except now I eat MUCH less, something around 60-70% of normal maybe).

I'm 25 years old, 65kg heavy and 168cm tall.

I have never tried to loose weight all my life so all input is appreciated

(yeah and if you havent guessed it allready I'm a vegetarian)
Protein is a much more efficient macronutrient (a macronutrient is simply carbohydrates, protein, and fat) than the toher two, and you certainly need more in your diet. I would recommend investing in some protein (could be whey protein, or a blend) and having that throughout the day (1600 and 2200 comes to mind particularly, before your training and your last meal of the day) in place of some fruit. You're doing a great job getting all the fruit; however, when dieting it's really important to add in more protein.
