Add in metformin, I think diabetic level dosages might be a good idea. I personally think Phentermine, phendimetrazine, and other diet pills could be very helpful, especially since its not schizophrenia that you're treating here.
In the meantime, maybe Abilify? You could switch straight over to 30mgs/day, add in a tranquilizing agent (atarax, benzos, buspar, a combo of these, maybe a mood stabilizer to reduce/prevent kindling) and see how that goes. If you get agitation, you need to up the tranq, especially if its a benzo.Good luck.
