    I've heard saffron is an appetite suppressant, I have some capsules I bought for mood but never tried them

    I found tea bags from traditional medicinals and its called weightless. Its dandelion, cranberry and other natural herbs and used to alleviate water retention temporarily.

    it tastes lovely, no caffeine and no over the counter diet pills that could be harmful to your body.

    Anything that actually affects your body can be harmful to your body, even "natural herbs."

    I found that 100 grams of jicama suppressed appetite for me. It's a sweet, crunchy, high fiber, low calorie root.

    Water works for me. If I eat something and find myself hungry 20 minutes later, a glass of water will usually take care of the hunger.
    I second this!

    I was on a medication that had appetite suppression as a side effect and lost a reasonable amount of weight. The thing is, when I was taken off the medication, my appetite came back and so did the weight. Plus a bit extra. If you do it with drugs you're likely to just go back to old habits (because you didn't unlearn them, just suppressed them).

    You could see a bariatric dr. They could prescribe a short term dose of: Metaformin, topamax, phentermine (which will give you the jitters), contrave, or any other number of drugs. However the only lasting solution is to eat a high fiber diet with the right macros to keep you fuller longer. The most successful weight loss is slow and steady. Good luck!
