Cymbalta: Losing the weight gained?

I have gained significant weight on cymbalta (am on 90 mg at the moment) but will probably be weaned off it soon since I’ve been diagnosed with mixed state bipolar recently. My doc says mixed states should be treated with only mood stabilizers and not anti-depressants. In any case, I was wondering whether one can expect to lose the weight gained on Cymbalta when you stop taking it and stick to a healthy diet? I used to have a super-fast metabolism and never had problems with my weight until I started Cymbalta (which apparently is not supposed to make you gain weight. Ha-ha).

This may sound goofy but I’m serious as sin, if marijuana was legal you wouldnt be having any of those problems. Ask anyone with A.I.D.S.
