HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
You can have the thyroid function assessed to see if your hormone level is low and contributing to your increased weight.
Family history of obesity may sometimes be related to similar eating habits and similar activity levels.
If you are not able to be as active as you would want, you would need to concentrate on your eating habits.
It is possible to lose weight by changing diet.
There are different diet plans available , you can choose the one that would best suit you.
I hope this helps
