A couple of months ago I gained 10 pounds
in just 3 weeks for no real reason. I
wasn't overeating or anything at all. I
freaked out about it and for 3 months I
went on every diet pill availible. It
didn't help and I stayed the same.
Finally I gave up and stopped and then in
1 week, I gained another 5 pounds. I
usually don't have this problem. I might
gain about 3 pounds in the winter but then
just lose it effortlessly in the summer.
I've never had a problem like this. I've
been the same size and weight since high
school. Does anyone know of any medical
reason why this might be happening? I'm
hesitant to call my Dr. Help, i'm a 30
yr old female.

You need to see your doctor now. You may
have an underactive thyroid. Your
metabolism is not doing its job.
