Hi,
Increase weight along with raised BP may indicate hypothyroidism. It's advisable to check you fasting TSH level and get your fasting and post meals sugar test done. Go for walk at least 30 to 40 min daily if possible to control weight. Avoid carbohydrates in your diet.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Deepesh Agarwal
