Losing weight by medicine

Nowadays people want to have a good shape , so they must find a method to lose their weight . Taking medicines is one of the methods that they choose . They can lose their weight for a short time , so a lot of people like having it . In my view , losing their weight by taking medicine is not good method for 3 reasons .
First , some medicines are bad for your health because they are dangerous for your brain and body. It may destroy the brain system and they make you psychologically sick or die . Sometimes they makes you not want to eat something , so you do not have enough energy and they make you feel faint .
Second , it is not successful for losing your weight because it is not the right method . If you want to lose your weight by the right method , you should control your behavior of eating and exercise . Besides , medicines affect your weight because it may make you get over weight again . From a survey , 90 percent of people who take medicines , return to get over weight again .
Finally , you must increasing your expenditure because medicines are quite expensive and you must take lots of medicines for losing your weight . In addition , you may be ill from taking medicines and you will spend a lot of money for treatment . For example , you may be psychologically sick and you must see the doctor .
In conclusion , I think taking medicines to lose your weight has never been good for anyone. If you must takes medicine for losing your weight , you should consult a specialist .
Do you have another method for losing your weight ?
