cant stop putting on weight

Ive always fluctuated with weight but always kept it under control. But evr since i quit smoking 6 months back, i cant seem to keep my weight under control. I continue to work out and cant stop eating rice. I do high impact aerobics and drink a lot of water but not only am i not losing weight but im actually putting on. I have two kids. one is 11 n the other 5. My weight is 56 kgs now. Id like to ideally be 51-52. Please help!!! im very close to getting into a depression!!!

How tall are you?  It's possible that 56kg is a good weight for you.
How much rice are you eating?  If you switched to brown rice or limited your servings to a cup, you might see some changes!

Take care!

I would expect there to be an underlying emotional cause.  I would ask the doctor on the emotional eating expert forum.
