I have not used Remeron, but I've read that people gain about 5 pounds (in some documents 10 pounds). According to one study, the placebo group also gained the weight. The explanation was that when depression lifts, appitite increases. I suspect that it is more than that, perhaps metabolic, or due to the sedation. You can read some about remeron at:
