feel disheartened because my stomach has grown quite a bit

i put on a lot of weight many year ago through an unhealthy lifestyle of overeating junk food and i contracted diabetes, so i had to do something about it right away, so i dieted, went to swimming at the gym a couple times a week and i lost 3 stone, which was a huge achievement for me and i reversed the diabetes.

but now ive gained weight again around my stomach, my stomach in potruding through my shirts a little bit.....ive just started going to the gym again after a 6 month lapse in attending, swimming once again but i feel down in the dumps over the weight ive gained again around my stomach....because i feel im having to start from square 1 again?

any help?

Men typically develop a belly, or "bay window" when they get older. The fact that you are going back to the gym, and swimming, is fabulous! You should be PROUD of yourself!!!
