Hi and thank you so much for this query.

Please, weight loss is a long term process and not that which has overnight results. If you want quick results, then take drugs but the problem is that the weight gain would return as soon as the medication is stopped. I will suggest that you rather adopt dietary measures and regular exercises alongside life style modifications. Though it would take long for the desired results to be obtained, the results would be able to stay rather than disappear sooner than later. My ultimate advice is that you should not take drugs.

I hope this addresses your query fully. I wish you well. Feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.
