Exercise plan.

Basically, I'm a bit unsure if my workout plan is too much or not enough.. Or just right! Also if I should boost my calorie intake to get enough energy to do it.
For starters, I'm 5foot11 & 157pounds. I mostly want to tone up but I do want to drop a few pounds as well.
I'm going to buy the 30 Day Shred & try to do it ever day through-out April.
I'm also going to go to the gym 3 or 4 times a week, for about an hour each time.
I'm going to try to get one or two 30 minute walks in every day, but running every 5 minutes for a minute just to give it that extra 'kick'.
Is this a good plan? I really want to get myself in shape for the summer, so I can wear a bikini for the first time in my life & spend my last teenage year as I should, having fun. Being over weight for most of my teens held me back from that so I want to make for it before I turn 20.
Also, should I up my calorie intake for it? At the moment, I'm eating anywhere between 1000 to 1300 calories a day. I've read that a lot of people need to up their intake to make up for how much their burning & to fuel the body for so much exercise.
Anyway, any advice will be greatly appreciated!
