Wish I had some suggestions. But about all I can do is commiserate with you. I've gained 15 pounds in the last 10 months. I quit smoking! I knew I would gain a little. Then My thyroid took **** on me and menopause sent my system into a whirl! I've been eating less. Working out and still I'm keep gaining weight. If you find out something that will explain and help in someway, PLEASE Share!
Anacortes Washington?
