im back like a vertabrae..new diet

ok so i was heavily into lifting for years then got serious about my diet last year for about 4 months durign the summer..i was on this site everyday at my internship...got some great advice and went from about 207 24% bf to 172 14% bf i looked and felt great...then i went to my senior year enjoyed all the compliments and met the girl of my dreams ( italian and loved to cook) now i had a girl and constant food being cooked for me ...slowly the deisire to eat healthy slipped away from me...i started finding less time to lift becasue I lived off campus now away from the walking distance gym and pretty much just stopped all together to drink every night ....so in 8 months i gained 47 LBS!!!!! Now im 220 and prolly close to 30% bodyfat ...i kept saying to myself i will diet once summer starts then when the summer started i said i would start lifting but get really serious when work starts an dim on a schedule....well long story short i have bad arthritis in my hip and it cant take me being this fat...so the other day all the pressure finally killed my hip and i couldnt walk for like 3 hours even after taking celebrex...so i got on the ball quick and designed a diet and started getting serious about cardio and lifting here it is ...all critiques welcome....
