You'll need more protein then, as the majority of your calories are coming from carbs.
ok thanks for the feedback.
Stingo- i bought some sesame spread stuff today, so i will have some of that, it should have loads of protein in it.
Tribal - I weigh about 8 1/2 stone. I don't really eat that much more than this anyway- maybe usually 1500-1700 calories
I will add more calories then. I will post details of my workouts. I dunno whether or not to workout today- its raining outside - i wanted to go biking, maybe i will later after my dinner.

Sure about which?
And when adding calories make sure that most, if not all of them are protein.
About these!

Read this faq. It should address/answer your questions.
Edited to add: I suggested making the additions almost exclusively proteins because your diet as you outlined it is almost entirely carbohydrate-based (with some fats from whatever nuts etc you have). Protein is a key ingredient to helping your body recover from workouts, so you'll need it.
He's not lying to you, jackie. 
Essentially, there's a hierarchy of macronutrients. Meaning, you should place a priority on them based on your body's ability to do without most effectively. It goes like this protein > fats > carbs. This means if your diet is lacking in anything, it should be carbs before fats or proteins, and fats before protein, and that your first concern should always be getting enough protein. If you're not getting enough protein from your diet, your body takes it out of itself. Which is a very bad thing, in terms of health and your physique goals.
Now, looking at your diet, you appear to be a vegetarian who is neglecting significant sources of protein in her diet. Where are the beans? Where's the cottage cheese? Do you not eat eggs?
It would be a very good idea for you to work on including a food that is a significant source of protein with every meal (including "snacks"). If you need suggestions, check out some of the stickies. I believe the FAQ stingo linked references LV's grocery list (near the end).
