I gained 10lbs during the two years I was on celexa. I had to buy new pants! But the weight came off as soon as I came off the celexa. You could try exercise, although my life was very busy when I was on celexa and I had a decreased appetite, so I feel you will gain some weight what ever you do. Having said all that, I have to say it was worth gaining the weight as the two years I was on celexa really helped me through a dreadful time in my life:-) Hope that helps.
