                        What medications are you taking?  LOTS of meds cause weight gain and Bloating.  As do a lot of medical condtins!  When was your last physical?  Have you discussed this with a doctor?  Have you had your Thyroid checked?  Do you have any GYN symptoms?  You are chould also be a connection to one of the above problems.  Please see a doctor before following any "fad" or Crash diets to Rule out a medical problem!!!      Good Luck!  Kimb
