You seem to be overweight.In spite of lifestyle modifications if you feel you are gaining weight I would suggest a thyroid profile at the earliest.Since low thyroid levels are one of the commonest causes of weight gain especially in women it is better to rule out this possibility.Continue exercise such as brisk walking for 30 to 45 minutes/day with adequate diet plan which will help you with a healthy weight.Hope I have answered your question.
