No one can do it but you.
Good Luck.
Be yourself, no matter what, because the people that mind, don't matter and the people that matter, don't mind.

Any of the so-called Medi-diet places prescribe it, and you can even pay with flexible spending if a doctor runs the program. My gastro doc's office runs a diet clinic, and I get it there (my regular gastro doc, and not my WLS). The nutritionist who runs the program says she gets the best weight-loss results from prescribing Wellbutrin which, as I understand it, is an anti-depressant combined with an amphetamine-like drug (something like that). She says it helps people who binge eat and also helps kill the appetite and stimulate the metabolism. She tells me that it works better than any of the other weight loss drugs available. IMPORTANT...If you have had WLS and use Wellbutrin or other drugs, ask for the non-time released versions of the medications.
I may try Wellbutrin sometime, but for now, the Didrex works really well. I don't use it often. A 90 pill bottle lasted me six months last time I got one filled. I just break it in half and take one twice a day for the first few days of getting back on my regular eating program or when trying to kick up my activity level.
Not advising anyone else to take this route. Just sayin'.....
