I was in your same situation until the dr said I was now diabetic and had high blood pressure. In a matter of 4 years I had managed to gain 58 lbs. My only excuse is me!!! I went thru a bunch of hellacious situations and comforted myself with food!! Wrong!! I went on a "diet" and had list 8 lbs in 2 months. Then I was guided from my dr to a nutritionist, best thing that could have happened to me!!! I am now down the 58 + another 20! It's been a hard 10 months but well worth it. I learned a lot about diet and nutrition. I was always dieting wrong!! Now I eat right!! There is no diet. There us healthy eating though. You can do it.
