During a VERY stressful period my old doc gave me Zyprexa samples. Only took 2.5 - 5mg and it was AWESOME! I felt relaxed, but not too relaxed, helped depression and I don't really remember any weight gain, but when I moved across country (this was the stressful event) my new doc didn't want me taking it. I only took it for about a month maybe.
I have lost about 30 lbs in last year through diet and exercise and new doc wants me to drop another 20 lbs (that could take me another year!)
But I loved Zyprexa it got me through a really bad time. Don't know if I would have stuck with it if I had started gaining weight.
