I see problems. Your diet has too many carbohydrates. Matter of fact it's nearly all carbohydrates (bagel, yogurt, beans, rice, potatoes and fruit). Too many carbs will cause blood sugar spikes which create cravings and keep the weight from coming off. You need less carbs, more protein. The exercises look good. Suggestion, use whole grain toast (11 carbs) instead of bagel (60 carbs). Read the labels on yogurt, it can have up to 40g of carbs. Fruit has carbs too, but they are healthier, however you don't want to mix yogurt and fruit, you're overloading on carbs. Bottom line, if you are trying to lose weight, fruit, vegetables, green salads (easy on the dressing) and low fat white meat (turkey, chicken breast, white fish). The meats will be an excellent source of protein. Ever see one of those plates that has 3 sections? 1 section is about 1/2 the plate the other two are about 1/4. Your carbs and protein should be the size of the 1/4 portion and the salad should be the 1/2 portion. Hope this helps.
