Hi, trying to lose weight. but with office and other freelancing projects i hardly have any time for working out. so is there an appetit suppressant ?

Yes, but . . .: You have to take the time to see your doctor for a prescription, or to try one of many otc supplements/diet aids/appetite suppressants out there. Most of the otc ones contain various stimulants that can increase blood pressure or risk of heart palpitations (if you are prone to develop them), so i'd start with a general physical exam and advice from your physician. Good luck, but exercise some!

Don't supress: Appetite suppressants are not good for your health. You'd do better to eat frequent small snacks that have protein and healthy fats. Nuts and cheese make great snacks. Those satisfy you so that you don't crave sugars. The other thing to do is to avoid caffeine. After it wears off you feel tired and will want sugar to pick you up.
