Gone Way Too Long

I've been gone so long. In fact I got so burnt out, of county calories and such that I just stopped it all. I gained back 24 pounds in six months. I am so freaking mad at myself for that.
So I've been trying to get myself motivated, the desire just hasn't been there. It is here now and in full force. I just had a brief stint with the Fast Metabolism Diet, as in 3.5 days, I started counting my calories and it turned out I was under 1400 each day. Which is about 169 below my BMR. Not a good thing at all. I want consistent calories each day and to not have to eat certain foods on certain days.
I will however be eating a lot healthier because of this little stint. Though I have to do within my families food budget which isn't a lot.
I need to also find a workout routine that would be good for me to start up again with. These are the ones I have at home:
P90X
Power 90
Another 90 type of workout
Tony Horton's 10 Minute one
New Rules of Lifting for Women
New Rules of Lifting
I also want to walk 3 times a week.
So my friends can you help me out a little? I so feel like a newbie.
A side note:
The only low calorie days I have had were the last three days, so I don't think I really need a Metabolic reset, do you?

Since you want to walk also, what a perfect match up for non-lifting days.
I'd suggest lifting, NROLFW or other.
3 x weekly for 60 min.
3 x weekly walking for 60 min.
This would allow constant calories with TDEE that included everything.
Count walking as 90 min towards TDEE level though, since it has less calorie burn.0 -
Thank you so much. I think this is something that is really doable.
I might switch it up and do NROLFL, just because I've gone through NROLFW. Just to switch it up. I'll start that next week. Since I am mid week now. Though I am not staying still these next few days. I am going to through in some 10 min trainer DVDs just to get some exercises in.
I really appreciate your help and your insight.0
