Ages ago, like maybe twenty years, I discussed weight loss with my gyn doc and he offered to prescribe meds to help me lose weight as long as I would come to the office every two weeks to evaluate how I was doing. I started but faltered after a month or so because I wasn't serious enough then to exercise regularly so I stopped taking them. There is some value to using the drugs (can't remember which I took back then) but you do need a competent doctor to prescribe/evaluate as there can be negative side effects from the drugs potentially.

Best of luck.
