While there are: medications and supplements that may help you are betting off trying to avoid these(particular prescription medications) if possible. You're best bet is try to remain as active as possible and clean up your diet as best as possible(at least in terms of minimizing processed foods and eating a diet rich in colorful veggies and fruits.)

Healthy lifestyle: Eat small 5 meals a day. Avoid high glycemic index carbonhydrates, aerobic excercise and abdominal firming excercise. Weight loss and decrease beer intake if it applies. Seek consult with a weight expert physician.
