Looks like you're on the right track. Heavy lifting, plenty of rest. However as Will Rogers said, "Even if you're on the right track, you'll get run over if you just sit there."
As far as the diet is concerned:
Read

THIS
I know, lots of links, but working out, having the right intensity and having desire mean a lot, but it all really comes down to your diet and nutrition.
I have spent years and years toiling in the spot you are in now. DO NOT make the same mistakes I've made. Focus should be 95% on your diet. You must concentrate on what you eat and when you eat it. I know most people
say they watch what they eat, but c'mon.... be honest do they really? I said the same thing up until about a year ago.
I'm following the advice in that first link and am really determined in my goals. I kid you not, I'm seeing improvements in my physic daily. It's amazing.
Good luck!
