    My hands have always swelled up when it's hot -- even when I was 110 lbs. But, now my feet do swell also.

    Watch that SODIUM intake. Read the labels: if the first 4 items are salt or sodium, you need to buy something else. NO ADDED SALT in cooking nor on the table. Use herbs instead. Drink your 64 oz. minimum of water every single day. Your body is probably reacting to heat+humidity conditions. Mine does too so that's why I cannot live in such a climate.

    You need to be assessed by your physician to see if there's anything else going on, physiologically.

    SUGGESTION: Print off your daily food and exercise diaries for one full week and take them with you to the doctor so he/she can evaluate you better.
