Answer
Most diet pills do trigger depression. Drug companies just love people that will flip that "magic pill" into their mouths (reminds me of the song, "Go Ask Alice.") There is only one way to lose weight and that's watching what you eat and exercising! I found "Weight Watchers" the best place to go because it's not actually called a "diet", but "correct eating habits." I lost 45 lbs. going there and have kept it off for over 16 years. We can all get off our regular diet because of the fast pace of life out in society. However, we can maintain it if we put our minds to it, and if ordering out at a restaurant make a choice between that big, fat burger with greasy chips and order something like a shrimp or chicken salad and there are many other tricks of the trade when you order food such as "all sauces re meats or salads" on the side. Meaning, you have control over what is on your food. Restaurants here in British Columbia are very aware of people sliding towards the healthy way of eating and are changing their menus if they want to stay in business ... even MacDonald's!
Get out and get walking! Take a friend! Also swimming or sports of any sort are excellent sources of losing weight and keeping trim. WATER is a must! Drinking water not only keeps your filtering organs in great shape, but gets rid of a lot of fat in the body.
Everyone is under stress these days, so take up walking every day to relieve stress, go to the gym, swim, do Yoga or Tai Chi or whatever turns your crank as long as it's exercise.
BE REALISTIC! If you are a big boned person, then you may well weigh 30 - 50 lbs., heavier than your girlfriend who is petite. You can't change bone structure! As long as you are trim looking for your bone structure (not thin) and tone up your muscles you'll look just as attractive as that slim girlfriend of yours.
Good luck
