Zoloft weight

I was 110 pounds all through out high school. I am 5'4. I was very comfortable with my body and it had never been a problem. I started taking antidepressants when I was 17, I just turned 19 and I weigh 140.. I exercise and eat normally. There is nothing I can do more to try and lose all this weight. I do not understand how this has happen but I am looking for answers or advice on how to lose this weight. I have just recently weened off Zoloft and am hoping to see some improvements. If you have any stories or any advice please let me know

If the weight gain was due to the Zoloft, it should come off very quickly without you doing anything differently.  If it doesn't come off within the next three months, then it might be due to other things, including the possibility as you age your body shape is changing or that, as you age, what you call eating "normally" isn't normal for you.  But my guess is, again, if this is due to the drug the weight will just come off fairly quickly.
