Anyone on a antidepressant that hasn't caused weight gain?

2-3 months ago my PCP started me on 2omg of sarafem(aka prozac in a much lower strength)for depression. Since being on it i have gained 13 pounds when i was told it would probably make me lose some...not the case! I still have quite a few pounds that i want to lose I am 2yrs post op and this is the first time I have gained and it is scaring the heck out of me. I excersise 5 days a week and just started increasing my protein intake. So i guess i have a choice be depressed and maybe start dropping weight again or not be depressed and possibly gain more weight. Anyone on an antidepressant that hasn't caused you to gain? My surgeon said just about everyone causes weight gain. Any suggestions would be appreciated, I am frustrated and scared that after all this hard work i am failing.
