Exclusion Criteria * Treatment with any medication known to significantly impact body weight or energy metabolism (e.g., weight loss medications, atypical antipsychotics) within 3 months prior to screening except for stable physiological hormone replacement therapy (i.e., thyroid hormone, estrogen). * Treatment with a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor, a medication for depression or apomorphine within one week prior to screening due to interaction with Zofran. * History of bariatric surgery. * Current liver, renal, pulmonary, cardiac, oncologic, metabolic, gastrointestinal, or hematologic disease which the Investigator believes is clinically significant, including: a.
