Tenormin

I'm 38 yrs old male, taking 25mg Tenormin(atenolol)/day to adjust my blood pressure for the last 14 months.
As my doctor suggest I'll need to take it for the rest of my life!
1.I'm very much worried on long term effects. Please advise.
2.I've noticed that since I started the medication I've put on weight and I find it extremely difficult to loose it.(unlike before that diet seem to be more effective than now!)Is this normal?
Thanks a lot.
