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

Take orlistat during or within 1 hour after a meal that contains some fat (no more than 30% of the calories for that meal). Orlistat is usually taken 3 times daily. If you skip a meal or you eat a meal that does not contain any fat, skip your orlistat dose for that meal.

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 such age is a mild factor but with the medicines and the loss of weight coupled with muscle loss, the body drops the metabolism. Also muscle loss causes reduced fat burn. 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.
There’s no overnight fix when it co...more
