How To Lose Weight?

Hi, im really trying to lose weight and I find it very hard to do. You see I had my son just over a year ago now and I gained 80 pounds, and I still can't get the weight off. Im 5'5 and 240 pounds. Can you please tell me a good diet pill or something that will help me, please? Thank you for your time.

Hello
You need 1000-1500 calories / day .
Fat 100 gm =900 calories ( butter , milk products which contains fat , ghee etc).
Protein 100 gm=500-650 calories ( white of egg, milk ( fat free ) cheese)
Carbohydrate 100 gm=450-550 calories ( sugar , sweets etc).
So adjust your diet in this way.
Since you are obese ,so if you can do exercise ,this will be the best for you moderate to hard degree exercise .
Orlistat is the name of drug .
dOSE:120 mg thrice in day w/ each main meal containing FAT ;omit dose if meal is occasionally missed of has no fat.
This medicine should be taken under medical supervision , so consult your doctor and get a prescription.
Lemon juice on empty stomach in lukewarm water also help.
Good luck.
