Weight gain seems very common with AD's and gaining weight certainly doesn't make anyone happy. Exercise is the only thing I have ever found that works as far as controlling weight. Everything else just seems a fad or slows down the metabolic rate and you have to eat like a bird. Is there any form of exercise you might like? If its not fun for you, its tough to stay with it. Plus they say exercise help with depression so it might be good for you in a couple ways.
