This is how deluded the apparent experts (medical doctors) on obesity really are.

We know it's hard to radically overhaul a way of life, and it is easy to take fat burners, but this is an extremely perverse and abusive way to treat children who are fat.
The right way is to feel hungry and do strenuous things. That's how the body works.
In the article the doctor actually said
"I definitely think this is a realization that diet and exercise is not going to do it for a number of teens who are struggling with this — maybe the majority,".
Insanity. Please people, take your child to a proper personal trainer and dietician. Do not let the doctor 'treat' them.
