Anyone know much about Vraylar or Rexulti? Would they possibly be a good alternative?

Coming from someone who has "been there, done that," with the awful weight gain, don't tell yourself you're a fat cow. It's the **** medication, not you, and you can be attractive/sexy even when you are heavier. Once you find the right meds, then start focusing on weight loss.
In the meantime, buy yourself at least one pair of pants or shorts that fit. You deserve to not feel like you're spilling out of your pants.
