Yes, and for me it was like 50 lbs in 6 months and then slows down.

It absolutely does. I've gained 30 pounds on it, and I really have to watch what I eat or I'll just keep gaining. Small price to pay for being able to function as an adult imo, though.

Unfortunately, it does. I’ve been on it 18+ years and have battled Zyprexa-related obesity the whole time. Sometimes it feels like an uphill battle, but with diet and exercise I’ve had success in shedding some of that excess weight and keeping additional weight gain at bay.
