HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
You may want to consider assessment by your doctor to determine if there are any hormonal issues that may be contributing to your weight gain eg abnormal levels of thyroid hormone or cortisol
IF these and other tests are normal then you may want to see a nutritionist to see if there are any components of your diet that need to be altered to allow for weight loss.
I hope this helps
