Can Diet Pills Be Taken Along With Birth Control Pills And What Diet Pill Should I Take?

Hi, I am currently taking Levonorgestrel and Ethinyl Estradiol Tablets for birth control and I was wondering if I could be on diet pills at the same time without having the pill be less effective. If this is possible to have the same effectiveness with my birth control then what diet pill should I take? I am 22 an would like to loose twenty or so pounds.
