I think I made it through all your posts so far & didn't see your current diet. You said you've done the BFL diet 2x and with a recent change in your living situation, you lost some of the results and are now looking for a different approach to kickstart.
Can you start by posting up what your current diet looks like -- what you eat, when you eat it. An important part of successful dieting is making sure it fits your lifestyle -- by which I mean, you don't get grossed out by the food on the diet (e.g. my protein mix & tofu mush snack) and that you have the time (or can make the time) to prepare and eat the meals. Sometimes this just means a little schedule & priority rearrangement. Trust me, we've all done it. (Ever try carrying 2 meals of fish with you during the last week prior to competition and hoping your boyfriend will let you stink up his microwave to reheat at feeding time...?) You make time for what is important to you.
And also please post up your training regimen & schedule.
I'm going to suggest you take a long perusal of Daisy's epic thread about what a clean diet can do first.

On the first page she lists her diet. There are all sorts of variations that are similar to the BFL diet. But you are right, when you follow the same regimen for a long time, your body stops responding as it used to and it does get boring. I've got my old competition diet that got me from 155 lb / 16% bf down to 133 lb / 8.6% bf in 16 weeks. I'll post this up when i get home tonite. Its a carb cylcing diet that keeps the total calories (for me was around 1475 cal/day) the same over the course of the week, but does a 3 day cycle of exchanging the calories from carbs for calories from fats in meals 2 & 4 over the course of these 3 days. I'm very sensitive to carbs & I carry bodyfat around my legs / thighs / hips. This diet + cardio 2x/day 4 days / week + training got me decent results in that 16 weeks.
Let's see what you're doing now & we'll go from there.
