Duromine yay or nah

Would you consider using duromine to assist weight loss? Have you used it before and had any success? Will you be able to maintain the weight loss when you stop using it? Let me know.....

    I'm not necessarily ethically against it, but the problem with taking a med to aid weight loss is that it doesn't give you the opportunity to develop the habits you will need to keep the weight off once you lose it. The great thing about counting calories is that it allows you to learn over time what works and what doesn't, and to develop habits you can use for the rest of your life to maintain a healthy weight.

    You still need to create a calorie deficit.

    If you feel taking an amphetamine like psychostimulant in an effort to suppress appetite to aid creating the calorie deficit is worth it, then I suppose to you it's worth it.

    You will maintain weight loss if you eat the required amount of calories to maintain that weight. Whether you can do that without the effects of the medication is anyone's guess.
