    It should do, everyone's different and it may take a bit of time for your metabolism to readjust. In my experience, before going on Zyprexa I weighed 140 pounds, then my weight went up to 171, I started weaning myself off the Zyprexa in December 2015 and even when I was weaning down I started noticing a little weight dropping. I was finally off it come February 2016 and by the May I weighed around 145 and that's where my weight has stayed for the past 2 years. Like I said everyone's different but once off it your metabolism should start to rise and you'll be more awake and energetic so you'll be burning more calories.
