Script to remove all empty files within the directory structure?

Hi I need to write a shell script which basically searches for all the empty files within the directory structure, lists them before asking the user to confirm if they would like to delete them. If the user deletes the file then a notice would appear confirming the file is deleted.

I've be trying to do this for weeks now and its driving me mad, I'm quite new to this, although I am getting to grips with it slowly.

Cheers
