I don't have enough posts to post links yet, but if you google liamrosen and click the first hit you ought to be on a page talking about fitness and weight loss that might be helpful to you.
Good to hear you're not going with the diet. Healthy weight loss is gained through lifestyle changes, not putting a magic pill into yourself. But, a placebo might help a little actually. Maybe find some sugar pills and put them into a dressy bottle. Mind over matter.
The personal trainer sounds like a good idea, and I'd tell your wife to not give up. It's harder for women to lose weight, and it's even harder to lose it when she's putting so much pressure on herself. These things take time, and she can't expect to see progress after one or two workouts. Obsessive weighing will only make her feel worse.
