What makes you think that you won't be able to control weight gain? Gaining weight isn't about giving up or losing control, it's a mathematical function of how many calories you take in compared to how many your body uses. That's it. You're on a website made for calorie counting so if you estimate how many your body currently needs (based on height, weight, activity) then you'll have a good idea how much you need to eat to gain, maintain your weight or lose. It's just numbers, nothing to be scared of.

Obesity happens for a variety of reasons but nobody sets out to gain 7kg and accidentally gains 70kg while being aware of what they're eating. Have you been restricting your food for a long time or do you have a history of disordered eating patterns? That might make managing your mindset more complex but the actual process of gaining some weight is very simple. Just move the numbers around.
