Improved Meyer Lemon yellowing

Hello!

I bought an improved Meyer lemon tree from a reputable garden store a few months ago. I live in central texas, and it has recently been yellowing. I water every other day (when the soil is dry an inch below the surface) with about 2.5 gallons of water slowly released through a water jug. I potted up a month ago with organic compost. I've been fertilizing with a granulated fertilizer (about a cup) about once a month and it perks up and regains some green. It's still yellowing and dropping older leaves, but it hasn't dropped fruit yet. It gets full sun in my driveway. It's in a plastic pot on cement. Any suggestions for how to make my tree happier??
