Weight loss pills may suppress your appetite but trust me they cause jitteriness, anxiety, mood swings, depression these are the ones sold over the counter but a medication called "Topamax" Topiramate (Generic form) the Generic is cheaper and almost all insurances pay for it ..This can be prescribed by a physician ..I took this medication now you got to drink lots of water with Topamax but it never hurt me and I had no side effects.
