Boy, that's a toughie... since there's only one way to put on weight, by consuming more calories than you're expending, I'd have to say there must have been some change that you've overlooked.

Three things come to mind.

First, candida albicans--about 80% of Americans have it, and it can run wild in the body and cause that kind of symptom.

Second, Hydrogenated oils and a sedentary lifestyle can cause you to gain 10 pounds per month.

And last, an increase in the amount of fast food, or even most restaurant food, will do it (MSG and high fats).

Since you are asking in the diabetes section, I'm sending this along, too--

Blood sugar imbalances are often prompted by chronic mineral deficiencies. The vast majority of people living in industrialized nations suffer from deficiencies in major minerals like zinc, magnesium and selenium, and in other nutrients. The brain, sensing these deficiencies, sends the signal to keep eating until the needed minerals are acquired, but since most modern processed foods are virtually devoid of these minerals, a person will never achieve the necessary mineralization consumption, no matter how much food they eat.

That's one reason why people can eat enormous quantities of processed or manufactured foods and still feel hungry. Their body is not receiving the proper hormonal "full" signals due to the absence of minerals necessary for normal blood sugar metabolism and hormone balance.

According to recent studies conducted by the Pritikin Longevity Center, diabetes starts from too much fat in the diet and insufficient exercise, not malfunction of the pancreas as previously thought. The pancreas continues to produce insulin when you have diabetes but the body becomes insulin resistant. Research has shown that over 90% of diabetes cases can be TOTALLY CORRECTED with diet and exercise. That means that you don't have to have limbs removed due to diabetes-induced gangrene. You don't have to go blind or suffer cardiovascular abnormalities because of diabetes. You can actually REVERSE some of these conditions with diet (nutrition, not weight loss) and exercise, and the removal of parasites and candida.

Watch the 8-minute non-profit video http://www.rawfor30days.com/view.html , about diabetes diet.
Best of luck.

I'm sorry, I know what you mean. I have been a yoyo recently and gained 10lbs in 1 month. My eating habits are always the same. I had to buy new clothes and dn't fit in my favorite items. I have been dealing with sugar problems and thyroid issues. See your doctor. Something might be going on and you shoudl fix it. Good luck

Many food companies are now adding sucralose or splenda (or other diet sugars) to their products and label them "low sugar". Even yogurt and children's cereals do this now. These diet sugars in fact raise your insulin so should be avoided. The diet sugar manufacturers submitted their own (flawed, faked) research to the FDA. Scientists (who have not been paid off or been hired by the diet sugar industry) who have studied this are alarmed at how misleading diet sugars are to dieters and especially diabetics. You can research it on Dr. Mercola's website.

Have a check up with an endocrinologist . Get tested for Cushing's and thyroid.

See your ob/gyn and test for PCOS.
These diseases cause weight gain without excess eating.

Good luck.

your pregnant with super babies ;)

It could be a lot of things - from over eating to stress to a change or shift in hormones.

Go get a check up - because there are too many factors here. Sorry :(
