Is it ok to do cardio every morning without eating? some nutrition questions too.

I plan to do every other day and when I'm more adjusted to the routine, perhaps every morning with 1-2 days off. I don't really care about muscle loss, I am more concerned with losing the fat, at least enough to see upper leg muscles and abdominals.

Right now I run 35 minutes at just over 5miles/hour (not that fast). I plan to increase by .1 miles/hour every 3-4 sessions because it's getting easier. Eventually I think I'll move up to 45 minutes and that's it. I'll probably stop before 6 miles/hour becuase then it could get too stressful, not sure. I'll increase the inclines too to challenge myself near the end of my runs, usually around 5 minutes at varying inclines, depending on how I feel.

Is this going to help me lower my body fat down to the low teens or even lower? Right now I don't count calories but I don't feel that I'm eating too much, I eat small meals whenever my stomach growls really hard and I feel really "empty" (generally every 2.5 hours or so, I think that's healthy). I don't feel like I'm overeating at all.

When my body fat level is where I want it to be, I will resume weight training along with cardio. I just want to make sure that I'm doing my cardio properly so I don't waste time. I've tried HIIT before but I wasn't comfortable with it. I don't have the equipment or a proper area to do it so I'm ok with longer cardio sessions.

I go to school for the whole day and I'm not close to home so right now I'm eating a lot of brown bread everyday, like 2 kaiser rolls with meat, and two slices of all grain bread with peanut butter and some fruit jelly. For breakfast I eat quickoats and a banana and yogurt. At night I drink protein and banana and milk "smoothie" and I limit myself to whatever my parents made for dinner.

any suggestions would be very helpful.
