A prescription isn't the answer. .Seek a nutritionist for the proper diet and then a personal trainer and you will have the prescription for successful weight loss.

No prescriptions from this portion of Healthtap. Losing weight involves burning more calories than you intake. It may take strenuous, calorie burning exercise, and it will not happen overnight. In the rare case that you have an underlying medical condition, consult with a local physician for tests and then a nutritionist who can guide you even further. Pills are not the answer, lifestyle change is
