Seems good, if you want to be picky I'd try get some more carbs in pre-workout - maybe some rice or something
some simple carbs post-workout like a bottle of lucozade or a shake or something
and i'd want some protein in the morning - eggs or a shake something

If the above gives you results then stick with it as it seems sustainable. Its a relatively good diet. This is the most important point, if you get results with this and can sustain it then stick with it and ignore the rest below as its bollox really

Obviously portion control is vital here as my bowl of porridge and your one could differ vastly in size

also fruit has a nice bit of sugar in it, and this is just me talking here but if I were you I'd replace it with steamed veg instead.

how sugary is the low fat yoghurt

breakfast lacks a decent amount of protein, sure milk and yoghurt have some but compared to the chicken, tuna and cod, its nothing.

how soon to the gym are you having the post gym meal. What are you doing in the the gym?

As I said above these are minor points the diet looks relatively decent compared to most of the population, good clean sources of carbs (veggies and porridge), protein (fish, chicken, eggs, nuts) and fats (nuts and oils in the tuna). If it works i'd stick with it

For just pure fat loss I'd disagree with that, we don't know either what kind of gym activities this person is doing

and i'd want some protein in the morning - eggs or a shake something

This I'd agree with

i do 60 minutes 5-6 days a week consisting of 20 minutes cardio ( 5 km, varying what way i tackle it), 30 mins weights and 10 mins plyometrics. this time excludes warm up etc.
So a couple of egg weights in the morning would suit yeh??

fair point, I assumed weights
