Metformin might be able to reduce weight gain of antipsychotics/antidepressants.

http://www.cincinnatichildrens.org/about/news/release/2006/12-diabetes-medicine-study.htm

"But a new study shows that metformin, an oral diabetes medicine that helps control blood sugar levels, not only reduces weight gain but decreases insulin sensitivity. The finding may "improve patient adherence to treatment and thus treatment outcome," according to David Klein, MD, PhD, an endocrinologist at Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center and lead author of the study."

Though, I don't know if you want to add another drug to the mix.
