.. meaning put your meal plan into fitday or some food counts program so you can see what you are really eating. Can you include your current height & weight so we can get a better idea of how much you should be consuming optimally?

Eyeballing your diet it looks like you are starving yourself again. And no good quality fats. You've already seen what happens when you go on an extremely restricted diet - it works for a while, but then your body decides it is now in a starvation scenario & it will slow down to conserve what energy reserves it has left ==> that means storign fat like crazy because it isn't sure if there's going to be enough stuff to run on based on your eating patterns. And if your eating habits change, you will also blow up.

In Jan, I was at the same stats (well, an inch shorter). Be proud of who you are now and the journey you are about to take. I recommend reading the stickies. Post your diet, goals, and excercise routine. Have you had your bf checked?
