At 0.5mg you do not have to worry about weight gain. If any, you might gain a pound or two, that is it.
Weight gain from anti-psychotics is caused by both metabolic changes and increased appetite. If you are worried about weight gain I would say that risperdol is your best bet until zyprasidone is released.
Good luck!
