Suggest Ways To Lose Body Weight While On Epilim For Bipolar

Hi. I take epilem for bipolar and have done so for 3 years. I am 5 5 and now weigh 73 kilos. This is very depressing for me as I used to be slim. I no longer drink alcohol which I know was the psychosis culprit not that anyone here would believe that. Anyway I once was happy and I would like to be slim and happy again. Suggestions please
