Hi! I guess I am going to stay on Phentermine (or whatever med my Dr. says) as long as I can. Obesity is a medical condition and should be treated long-term. When you said you're on 50 mg, did you mean on Phen? I didn't even know it came in that dose. I don't really experience fatique, or feel the "high" some people do, I feel basically "normal". I am on 37.5 mg. now. When I was on phen/FEN, I was only on 15 mg. of Phentermine.
How much weight do you want to lose from now? If you've already lost 30 lbs, are you near your goal? Unfortunately, the statistics are not in your favor if you do go off the medication. In 5 years, there is only a 5% chance all your weight will stay off.

Hope this info. has been somewhat helpful.
