Your body can only lose 2lbs(healthily)a week, I think your spreading your workout over the week badly.

Have you been doing no weight training? It's important you do weights to keep your muscle. You've probably lost muscle mass. Do you take supplements?

Muscle =
*Shape
*Higher metabolism = Burn more calories when not active

I've changed your exercise plan

Mon = 4 mile run 35mins
20 mins on punch bag with 3x8 multi gym.
6pm 20mins HITT ?(what is this)

Tuesday = Light Cardio = Situps w Medicane ball, Speed walk, bike(Warm body up)
Free Weights biceps and back

Wed = Rest day

Thursday = Light Cardio
Weights Legs

Friday = Light Cardio
Weights triceps and chest

Sat = Rest

Sun = 10k run 1hr 20 mins(if you must)

What's your diet like?
No i don't take any supplements can you recommend some. Weight training on the multi gym only. No i really don't have to do the 10k run on a Sunday it was just for fun anyway. My diet on a typical day is as follows not forgetting I'm sort of a vegetarian.

Breakfast: Shreddies, piece of fruit.

mid morning 2 slices wholemeal bread low fat spread

lunch porridge semi skimmed milk piece of fruit

dinner quorn fillets veg/salad eggs

That's about it most days really, sometimes i change the lunch from porridge to eggs. Looks like I'm in the need of some free weights dam more money lol.
I'm starting to regret getting the multi gym.
