Lost Lots, Gained a Little

Hi everyone! I'm new to MFP but not to the whole losing weight and life style change. I'm a 28 year old female, working full time, and as of January going to grad school full time. I was very athletic in high school but in college put on the freshman 15 for 5 years in a row and then some. So when i graduated I weighed 215 pounds. I've been out of college for 5 years now and last July hit my lowest weight of 130 pound (I'm 5'6). I was a bit too slim at 130 pounds so my goal now is 140. As of today I'm at 159! I've gotten a new boyfriend who is a corn fed, meat and potato eating midwestern man. So my salads have been switched for bread and it's gone down hill from there. He happens to like me at this weight because of the extra "curves" but I don't like me at this weight. I feel uncomfortable in my own body and I want to get back to where I feel confident and my clothes fit again. We booked a trip at the end of May for Mexico so I need to be back in bikini shape before then! I'll take any help, support, and friends I can get because the more accountable I have to be the more likely I am to follow through with this.

    Same goes for me, I'm new as well and I think we can motivate each other.
