Do you need a prescription for diet pills?

hey i was wondering.. do u need a prescription for diet pills.. i really want to loose weight and i was wondering how diet pills work and if i could just buy them like them... please help me out

Hi,

It depends on what kind of diet pills...some can be bought over the counter, but you must be 18. They often don't work anyway, they are a gimmick or make you lose just water weight. You'll gain it right back.

The way to lose weight is through healthy diet and exercise. Eat 4-6 SMALL meals a day, consisting of lean meats, whole-grain starches, fruits and vegetables. Set up your plate so 1/4 is meat, 1/4 is starch, 1/2 is fruit and veggies, and there is minimal fat.

If you do this as well as drink 8 glasses of water a day and exercise for 30 min a day a few times a week, you will see healthy results.

Good luck.
