I hope you don't mind my saying this, but 5'7" and 134 may actually less than normal? I am not sure what that weight looks like on someone 5'7", as I am not lucky enough to be that tall, but you could probably carry a few more pounds than that and still look fine with that height, depending on your frame. Could you be gaining muscle, which weighs more? I wouldn't just go by weight...what about dress size, inch measurements, etc.
Regarding antideps...I am on Remeron, and like someone else here said, you'll definitely want to stay off of that. A remeron/combo works well for me, so I am dealing the fact that I am 7-10 lbs more than before and slowly it seems to be coming off, but it wouldn't be a wise choice if you have body image issues, eating disorder, etc. (Not that you are on it now, just putting it out there as something to avoid for the future.)
