Unexplained weight gain. HELP

Hey friends! I need your help. Within about a year and a half I have noticed significant weight gain.

The first picture was taken around August 2017 when I was at my lowest weight of 127 and the second picture was taken around August 2018 and I am almost at my highest weight of 160.

Between these two pictures I got married but my lifestyle and diet didn’t really change. The only difference is my husband and I go out to eat more often (probably around three times a month) than when I was single.

I workout about four days a week and eat a healthy diet. My job as a riding instructor is pretty physical and always keeps me moving. I’ve also been doing the Insanity workout program for about a month now and haven’t seen a change at all in my weight or measurements.

I’ve done cleanses to jumpstart weight loss, but with no progress.

I’ve been to the doctor to have my thyroid checked but all my levels came back completely normal!

I am at a loss as to what to do, and this is my cry for help. I really don’t know why I gained all this weight and can’t lose it. It has definitely affected my confidence and my overall mental health. I’ve been experiencing crippling anxiety that lasts for days and I can’t handle being around people who are in shape because I feel like everyone is staring at me and thinking about how big I’ve gotten. I know that’s not true but I can’t stop thinking it.

I am writing this from the car at our church parking lot because I broke down crying this morning when the outfit I picked out doesn’t fit me anymore.

Has anyone else experience this? I need help!
