Drink water; no sodas, not even diet sodas. If you must, the occasional 8 oz. of pure fruit juice is acceptable - I would recommend grapefruit juice. As far as snacks go? Ditch anything processed, go for fresh fruits and veggies, or if you need more protein in your diet, pop open a tin of tuna, have a hard-boiled egg or invest in some whey protein.
Get into P90X if your PT routine isn't enough for you. You'll be really lean after 12 weeks of P90X if you follow the dietary guide and push play every single day.
One more note; the more active you are, the more often you eat during the day, and the more muscle you build (while cutting fat), the higher your metabolism will be. Keep that in mind. Try taking pictures of yourself, and take your body measurements; it will help you to see how your body composition will change more efficiently than a scale.
