Weight Gain

I’ve gained about 15 pounds in 10 months. I eat approximately 2200-2500 calories, walk 10k-14k steps in a day, have a desk job, eat 150g of protein a day, 25-35g of fiber and mainly a whole food diet. I also strength train 3 times a week for about 45 minutes each. I’m on progesterone, and an every other day 1/2 pump of testosterone cream. My sleep has improved this past year but could also keep getting better. I’ve been managing my stress through meditation, breath work and sauna. I’ve cut high intensity cardio out for now. I’ve also recently been put on thyroid medication as my T3 and T4 have been a bit sluggish. I still can’t lose the weight and I’m losing my muscle definition 😩. What else can I do to get a handle on the fat gain and muscle loss?
