I'll ask what is it you wish to achieve? I would bump up the carbs a bit with some sweet pototoes and lose the muscle milk and replace with a good whey protein concentrate before bed. How much water do you drink? Can you eat fish? there is a lot of room for improvement here but without a bit more detail it's hard to say. In general though not enough food. Put some red meat in your diet also.

You don't want to let the bf get any higher if you can help it. You'll need to increase your protein intake and try to get in 3 cardio sessions a week. no more than 30mins. each session. Try for around 3500-4000 cals and see how your body responds, if it does not put on fat try to increase cals by 250 as the weeks go by, making up from as much good protein and clean carbs as possible. Throw in the cheat meal once or twice a week, that's meal not days just to keep your sanity! keep us posted!
