    Ok, one little thing you forgot, how old are you? Age especially child-bearing age, will make your body prepare for insulation and safety to prepare for children. You used to do gymnastics in school and now maybe lack in extra activity.. all of this can cause you to gain a little, but it's normal, unless you changed your nutritional habits - maybe too busy at the job, or school to eat properly...
    Are you working, if so, at a sedentary job? try walking up and down stairs a few times a day, that usually helps get circulation going and also swimming. Swimming uses muscles that are not always used during daily activities, to include the muscles on your sides and hips, and upper legs. Also, if you like dancing, find some good music and dance your heart out for 15 minutes in the morning without needing any exercise video, just music you enjoy moving to.

    As for diet pills, I strongly recommend you not use them, as most of them have speed in them and will change your personality and financial weight before it does anything for your body weight. If you must try something, try it in the line of a med that swells up in the stomach making you feel filled up, but they also cost a lot and you'll need more than just one a day. There are a lot advertized in the media, net, and magazines, but unless you are sure and know someone who has tried them, don't waste your money. If the filled up feeling sounds good to you, drink a lot of water before meals, that makes you eat less. Then, the most important thing, even though I put it last... See your doctor for advice. Remember also, scales will indicate more weight even when you swim because muscles weigh more than fat, so still work at it if you choose that route. You, your doctor and your clothes will let you know if you are doing the right thing. Good Luck. P.S. also find a site on weight reduction without them trying to sell you something..

    You are welcome, I'm not puching my ideas on you, but health is more important than looking like 'twiggy'. Most young ladies who lose a lot of weight fast get their hormones so mixed up that they can even go back to pre-adolescence stages and become infirtile, which is not too good if you want a family in the future. The best of luck to you and keep us posted..
