Harmful affects of Phentermine on the body

[hbates]

I am 21 yrs old and I have taken Phentermine since I was about 17 to loose weight. For some reason I gain weight really easy. So now I don't really loose any weight, so I just take the medication to keep the weight off. If I stop taking it I gain weight really easy, if I take it I don't gain any weight I stay the same, which is my avg weight for my height. I was wondering if this medication is going to affect my body in the long run, or if it's ok to keep taking it, to keep from gaining any weight. I model and stuff like that so I really don't want to gain any weight.I am not anorexic I am 5'11 and weigh 147.I really need some advice

Honey this medicine is really habit forming you only suppose to take it for 3 months and be off it for 2 weeks to 1 month then start again from my own knowledge I work in a doctor's office and see these people come and go with this medicine they can't do with out it It's like street drugs they have to have it and they haven't lost a pound. So if I was you I would try to find out what could be the problem it may be with your thyroid or something else and it may be if you constipated a lot and need to have a colon cleansing I mean before you destroy your body try to find out what the problem is because after a while those pills may not work and you will be looking for something stronger and don't go that route Knowledge is power

I don't loose any weight, I stay were I am at that's the poin I am at a good weight, but when I stop taking them Igain it back. I do eat healthy and exercise, but I notice Phentermine keeps me regulated, but when I stop I am real constipated, I think thats why I gain the wight. I have already had my thyroid checked and it's normal. I eat fruits and vegetables and some meet, alot of sugar free stuff and I walk at least one mile, but I seem to not keep the weight off.If I was addicted I would be taking them now, but I've stopped
