Unhappy Methadone and weight gain :(

I have been on methadone (175mg) for a little over a year now, and my only major problem is that I gained about 35 pounds. I have figured out how to stop gaining the weight, I just can't seem to loose it. When I started on m-done I weighed about 106lb, I am 4'11. Now I am at 135lb.
I don't know what I would of done without it. I am finally on my way to recovery from oxycotin/heroin. There is no way I can go through another withdrawl, I think I would die. With Methadone I feel great, almost normal, and no more chasing down my next dose to keep the pain away. Oops, look at me babble, I am sorry, I just need to know if there is any thing I can take or do, besides exercise, to help me loose this weight. I know methadone lowers your metabolism. Any ideas would be greatly appriciated.
Thank you.
please excuse my spelling.
