Have you discussed it with your doctor? Do you watch your diet to monitor your calorie and fat intake?
The Lyrica contains the active ingredient Pregabalin and it has been known to cause weight gain in some people that have taken it, so it may be the culprit.

I gained weight on some of those same medications as well, it's a common side effect. Walking is good for you but it won't stave weight gain. Talk to your doctor about it, you may need to try other medications if it's a problem, weight will surely not help w/chronic pain.
