I was on clozapine (AP) and put on a hell of a lot of weight! But, it's notorious for that, I noticed others in the hospital who were also on it were, erm, large, but there were others who were slim. My mums on it and is pretty darn slim!
I'm on aripiprazole, olanzapine and sertraline and I've managed to lose some weight. I think you should take your meds, it is possible to lose weight but also, they (hopefully) will make you well and my thinking is that, if you're well it will be easier to make healthy decisions and hence lose weight.
Thinking of you.
