  1. I was on then years ago with the phen- phen. It worked wonders but after getting off of them I gain all my weight back plus more. I have been back on them without the phen- phen and it did nothing but give me energy but no weigh lost. I Do not want to put to much of my business out here but I only take them when I'm about to be with my husband in that special way for the energy. He loves it......
