Warning: Info only!: I'm not recommending this - but it does seem reasonable and might help you in some way. http://www.theroadback.org/weight_loss.aspx
an interesting fact is that the digestive tract has more serotonin receptors than the brain. That's a reason for weight ; stomach side effects so many have.
Consider psychotherapy as a bridge to reduce med needs. You learn skills w/out side effects. Best!
