Will gaining a lot if weight cause depression and extreme fatigue i gained 75 pounds outta no where in two yeats and feel depressed and fatigued?

Yes--see your MD: It certainly can contribute to both depression and fatigue, which can set us up for more weight gain as we lack the energy and interest to remain active. If you haven't already done so, see your primary care doctor to begin figuring out what is happening. Thyroid problems, hormone imbalances, and borderline diabetic conditions are among several possible causes that should be checked.
