NY Biker - I'll message you. Here, I'll just say more than a little I have a long history of being overweight - I know why I have gained when I have - it is the losing that has perplexed me.

My diet now is heavy on protein, veggies, and fruit. I do eat plain, full fat Greek yogurt in small quantities and some whole grain carbohydrates (mostly oats and brown rice). Very little sugar or processed food.

I will talk to my primary care when next I see her. She is also new, as my old primary care relocated - and I haven't decided how I feel about her. I should have more contacts to find more appropriate providers when I start med school (at the latest). In the mean time, I will talk to my awesome physical therapist to see if she has people she would recommend. I have worked with her for a while, and she hasn't led me astray.
