Switching to Paxil concerned about weight gain

My dr is switching me from Zoloft 50mg to Paxil 20mg bc my anxiety, depression, and ocd have gotten worse even when I increased my Zoloft dose up to 100mg. When I originally started Zoloft 10 years ago I gained weight even though I was religiously in the gym. I’m really scared that I will gain weight switching to Paxil. I do crossFit 5x a week so I’m extremely active already. Anyone have any thoughts or experiences on this? I can’t handle gaining weight, I’m already OCD about working out.
