I agree, pills are not the solution. Clean eating and exercise. Log what you eat. Check out this website http://www.myfitnesspal.com/ It helped me to loose 15 pounds.
Good luck, I know it is not easy to loose!!!

There's a very interesting article in the current Newsweek magazine written by a doctor whose speciality is obesity.
Cutting out sugar and starches is what this MD says is the only way to fight American obesity.
He also says exercise may be good for a lot of reasons, but has nothing to do with weight loss.

Dr. Oz had things to eat to lose weight on his show this week. One tip was Expresso and a chocolate cookie that he said the recipe will be on the web site. Maybe you can find something there that will help.

My fitness pal is great but don't rely on their calorie estimates for exercise. I bought a heart rate monitor when I hit a real nasty plateau and discovered that they were telling me I was burning twice as many calories as I was. I use www. my fooddiary.com now because I was having trouble getting ugly tracking cookies on my pc from all the ads on myfitnesspal. It's essentially the same thing but you have to pay for it. It's worth it for me not to have to run a security scan to clean my pc 3 times a day. I've lost 62 pounds since Christmas.
