It could be one of 4 reasons. There could be more but lets stick the basics.
ONE: You aren't eating properly. You could either be eating too much sugar, carbs and fat together, (Eating fat/ carbs with a lot of fat will make it store) or you could not be eating enough vegetables, protein, and fruits. You need to have enough minerals and protein to maintain a healthy body.
TWO: You could not be exercising enough. Your body needs a high metabolism to burn fat at a healthy rate. Your metabolism is how much calories your body burns. The way your body burns calories is it has fat burning enzymes. If you do aerobics and or light exercise you will be burning fat. Fat burning enzymes are very lazy and if you do aerobic exercises often they will make more, eventually raising your metabolism to a healthy place. However if you are exercising anaerobically your body will switch to your sugar burning enzymes and you will no longer be burning fat. One easy way to tell if you have switched to sugar burning instead of fat burning is when you "feel the burn." When your body burns sugar it makes lactic acid and that will create that sensation of burning in your muscles. One exercise that is NEVER aerobic is Weightlifting. Weightlifting can be anything from push ups, to barbells, sit-ups, etc. I am not saying that weightlifting is a bad thing though. Weightlifting can make your muscles stronger so therefor you can do more aerobics for longer. :]
THREE: You aren't getting enough sleep. If you aren't getting enough sleep you will gain weight. There are many reasons but one of the main reasons is if you are tired you will be lazier, not as active, and as a result will not get enough exercise.
FOUR: You aren't happy. If you are always sad your body will also become lazy and you will not exercise enough, causing your metabolism lower. Also sometimes if someone is not happy they are more likely to eat more to help them be happy.
If it is none of these reasons it could be more complicated, and you should probably see a doctor or a dietitian.

Do large breasts increase cancer risks?
Doctors used to think that women and/or men with large breasts might be more prone to developing malignant tumors, but the idea has never been proven by research, and therefore might or might not be true. Being overweight, however, does increase your risk, and when you are overweight, you tend to have larger breasts. So, if your breasts are larger because you are 20% more overweight than your ideal weight, it might be a good idea to shed a few pounds.
