Thank you everyone for your help. This is all new to me. I'm just very frustrated with this all. Not many years ago I was grossly underweight 5'5" and 95-100 lbs and this was into my late 20s early 30s. My doctor constantly told me I needed to put weight on but it wasn't like I wasn't trying it's just what it was. For…

Thanks for your stories. I too had s career change last October but mine was not more sitting but working odd hours. I do swing shifts but I still tried to maintain the same amount of exercise and logging my food. I will take everyone's advice and weigh my food instead of measuring it and I will definitely weigh my chicken…

Thank you for that. I spend so much time readjusting my meals. once I select something and check my carb, fat, protein intact and it's too much fat and not enough protein I end up deleting and looking for something else to eat. And now with this gluten free issue it's became even more trouble. And a lot of the time I end…

I have always measured my vegetables and things like peanut butter, dressings, And fruits. I just wasn't weighing my chicken/fish and my potato. Are you suggesting instead of measuring them by cups and teaspoons I should weigh those as well? I really don't eat meat that much so honestly I didn't think it would make this…

Thank you. I'll start weighing. I'll just need to go pick up a scale.

Well the reason I don't weigh my chicken breast is because it's the same kind I was eating when I was losing. As I said I do not eat red meats or porks. Salmon is a once in awhile meal. It's baked not fried and I do not bread anything especially now due to the gluten issue. I measure dressings by teaspoons and it's…

I did not eat calories at a surplus. I actually don't meet my calorie goal of 1450 very often. I've never stopped tracking my food intake. I've logged at tracked everything for over 500 days. That's why I thought this was a medical issue but with my doctor saying my blood work is good and nothing abdominally I have became…

Yes this was my first thought. As I said I did have a full blood work up done and abdominal x-rays. I have been told by other women about the symptoms of ovarian cysts and that I might want to get an ultrasound done. I've just concluded I don't have the answers. I do log everything I eat. I actually figure my daily meals…

Well I measure my vegetables I don't weigh them. I do not eat much meat but a chicken breast and maybe a salmon filet. I do not weigh those. As I said the weight gain started in April. I have my waist measurements as 30 1/2 inches then. Now I am 36 inches. My biceps are 12 from 11. Thighs 24 from 22. My primary weight gain…

I'm 5'5 currently weighing at 150 but like I said I continue to gain, but worse my waist is getting larger in size. I've went up two pants size. I'm not at home to look at my last measurements.

I started off on a low calorie 1200 diet but adjusted it throughout my weight loss period to make up for the weight loss i had. Even when adjusting it I still continued to lose. Eventually having a 1450 calorie diet in the end when I started gaining it back. I've pretty much been stuck there and I admit I'm not teaching my…
