I have only been on it a couple of days, however I'm really craving carbs and sweets.

I was on it when I was first diagnosed but I was on a much higher dose. I looked up side effects and it said only 5% have the weight gain issue.

So have any of you gained weight on it?

100+ pounds. I crave fat and sugar.

If they can make a pill that does this they can damn sure make one that doesn't.

I didn't but sounds like you are in the 5%. See if you can get your doctor to try a different antipsychotic, I'm on abilify and love it.
