hi there!
undoubtedly its significant weight gain over the short span of time.
it can be due to several reasons, may be hormone related like thyroid, lifestyle related, even significant stress resulting in atypical depression can show such results.although hypothyroidism is very common, one cannot comment on it without blood report.
i would advise you, please show to your physician ,in addition to some tests he can assess you by clinical history taking and examination also.
hope this helps you.
