You can stop medicines after 6 months of dosage. Medicines alone will not help you lose weight. You have to exercise and eat well to lose weight even after stopping the medicines.
Cut down the excess carbs. If you want to lose weight you should start by avoiding sugar and starch (like bread). A low carb diet reduces your hunger and makes it easier to eat less. And it might even increase your fat burning at rest.
Don’t skip meals. Skipping meals will not make you lose weight faster. That...more

Don't use orlistat as you are breast feeding, any other drug is also not recommended for you as your baby gets 1% of it through breast milk. What you should do is: avoid sweets and oily food. Reduce dinner quantity to half. Do morning walking dailyfor an hour. You will lose weight and become an attractive lady. Good luck.

Hye. Thankyou for your query.
Usually the loss initially is mostly due to a lot of muscle loss, when you try to lose weight with medicines.

As we age also if you are inactive there is reduced metabolism. Sadly, these short cut supposed easy ways to lose weight are not long lasting.

Hello, Thanks for the query.
I have seen the details and understand your concern. Since you have hypothyroidism, it is possible that if TSH is not well controlled then obesity may develop. There is no mention of your TSH, T3 & T4 levels. It is necessary to know those.
What is your height? It is necessary to know or calculate BMI (Body Mass Index).
As regards taking tablet Reshape or Orlistat, it hardly helps in Indian diet as our overall intake of fats is not too high. On the contrar...more
