Who else has gained weight even though eating habits and exercise hasn't changed? I've gained 20 pounds in a little over a year. I need some help, because nothing seems to be working.

This happened to me. I assume you are an ex- smoker? I used to be a smoker. When you quit smoking your metabolism slows down and it's harder to burn the calories. I am a little older than you and age also slows down your metabolism. It's when I revved up my exercize I started losing. I used to just walk 30 minutes a day. I added 15 minutes or more pedaling on my stationary bike at a moderate resistance. If I am consistent in reducing my calorie intake and doing daily excersizing, it works! Good luck!0
