Apatite suppressing supplements?

I'm about 1 stone over weight I try to lose weight but I always fall off the waggon. I find myself always thinking about food when I'm trying to be calorie deficit, i can't stand being hungry!

Is there anything I can take suplement wise that wil suppress my apatite?

My bmi is 27 so weight loss jabs aren't available to me

As a dietitian, there is no such supplement
Im afraid, hence the craze about the GLP1s.

Best natural suggestion would be to have plenty of plant based and high fibre foods which help with early satiety.

ok so there definitely are things that you can take that can be looked up, verified, are shown and proven to work lmao of course people will say the textbook healthy yada yada eat clean play the harp and not here inject this and that etc but lets be real here is what actually works and can be obtained COMPLETELY legally sold as products in Europe:

  • ephedrine/pseudoephedrine you would try to get allergy medicine but say you need one that is NOT based on antihistamines. You are allergic like you cannot even focus on school/work when pollen is flying, right?? So you need that. Like phentermine which used to be prescribed a lot this is a stimulant and will take your mind off food by boosting energy even without taking in calories. This is and has been tasted and taken by the millions since ww2, don't let anyone fool you into believing it is not real.
  • alli/orlistat that is for when your main binge foods are fatty and you want to prevent that from being absorbed by your body!!! This binds the fat and you can literally see it still there in your stool so of course it works
  • white kidney bean extract capsules (a LOT of them, like 5000mg vs. each meal) that can inhibit amylase and with that, prevent starches and complex carbs from being broken down. Combine with a lax or just fiber, psyllium husk etc so get rid of it so fast by stool that the colon barely has a chance to absorb it
  • stimulant alternatives that are in pre workout boosters like synephrine, bitter orange, guarana/black pepper, NMN (for all the same reasons as ephedrine) look for cheap brands with aggressive labelling they tend to literally put ridiculous amounts in. Check the barcode (EAN) on the product and then google that.
  • hormone supplements, you would look into ipamorelin, tesamorelin to stimulate your muscle synthesis, helps build and retain muscle which in turn is body tissue that burns more calories than fat
  • ACTUAL prescription meds because you can literally just get those if you research what conditions need to be met and pay for it yourself. There are services that will put you into contact with a doctor for a small fee to make sure you get the treatment you prefer. Google your country + online pharmacy or med spa or private remote consultation and what you would do here is check a pharma wiki online for the medication you want plus "indication" per dosage and then say you have exactly that going on for several months now. You also cannot visit a local doctor because you just moved, and I heard you are taking care of a relative in a rural area which justifies all of this of course. I have never seen a teleclinic with paid consultations refuse anyone anything unless you say you have 97 mental conditions and work for law enforcement lol.

Not gonna recommend specific products but I've been using all of that on and off, tried ECA stack, c/s and all kinds of crap and I know what works and what doesn't, google for yourself and read before you actually take anything.

Amphetamines but they’re illegal. I believe from Dr,
some private clinics will prescribe things like phentermine but you’d need to double check.

Look up berberine, some reviews say it really suppresses appetite. I guess you would have to try it to see if it works for you.

2 glasses of water before every meal and help make you feel fully and re-hydrate you.

Otherwise, no appetite suppressants that I know of.
