I can only speak from my own personal experiences, and I encourage input from others. Here goes ...
I have taken 30+ meds over the past nine years for anxiety, and several had notorious reputations for weight gain, including one I currently take (Seroquel).
I have gained weight, but I am unsure whether is directly or indirectly from the med. Indirectly, the Seroquel makes me tired and sluggish, more likely to sleep long and be lazy, therefore less likely to exercise or be active, therefore more likely to gain weight.
