Is This Legal?

Question

I want to loose wight fast yes yes I know I'm lazy but I want to loose it by diet pills I'm 14 so I was wondering if it was legal for me to purchase the pills myself since my mom won't

instead of wight I ment weight

Answer 1

try buying the pills on your own and you'll find ur answer if it's legal or not

Answer 2

The only pills that are legal for you to take without a doctor's prescription, don't work. If you read the small print in the ad, the TV commercial, or the label on the bottle; you will read, "effective when used with a proper weight reducing diet and exercise".

Don't be lazy, being lazy means staying overweight, that is, if you are overweight? Losing weight fast is not good for your body. The maximum weight that is ok to lose is 2 and 1/2 lbs a week.

Trust your mother. At 14 y/o you are not mature enough to make good decisions about this. God bless you.

Answer 3

do not take them and i hope you never take them. they may make you lose weight, but they are really bad for you. you should not lose more then i think 2-3 lbs a month (but not really sure). it is unhealthy to lose more then that. what you want to do is break your meals up to 5 meals a day. make them small meals too like 400 calories a meal i think it is. and just eat healthy, but not to healthy, because then you will start leaving out the things your body needs the most. just cut back on junk food and eat smaller meals. and do some exercise. but remember being skinny can also be unhealthy. this is also a critical period for you, this is the time when eating disorders start appearing in girls, so please be very careful. dont obsess about your weight. you might even want to talk to your doctor about diet for you. also i would suggest doing some research on eating disorders, because once you have it, its hard to control, very hard, i am bulimac, non purging type, started at about 12. i dont throw up or use pills, i just fast. its hard for me to eat three meals a day. but remember anyone can develop an eating disorder, princess diane had bulimia!! so please listen to your mom and dont buy the pills, just eat right and exercise!!

Answer 4

You are only fourteen years old. People like to equate weight with health. Just because you are skinny doesn't mean you are healthy. The reason more and more women are having weight problems is because of there thyroids. And not because they are lazy. There is a lot of women out there that damaged there livers, and thyroids taking diet pills. You are only fourteen you will grow out of it. See your doctor first to make sure you are healthy. Second the average American women is a size 14. Just have fun I would kill to be fourteen again pimples and all. Good Luck!

Answer 5

You are awfully young to be thinking about your weight. I dont think that diet pills would be good for you. Have your parents take you to the dr. and talk to him and he will put you on a sensible diet. There is no way to lose weight fast it takes time.

Answer 6

no its not. youre supposed to be 18 to order pills and those types of things, but if you are able to get the pills and something happens the company will get in trouble not you.
child, you are 14 years old, be careful. dont start a dangerous habit.

Answer 7

oh you could do it. then when you stop taking them your metabolism is slower and you will gain weight fast. probably gain back more than you started with. not to mention the health problems that come with diet pills. you are probably a normal weight. look it up online according to your height.

Answer 8

no its not legal if you dont have your moms permission
pills will only work if you continue to take them once you stop the weight usually comes back
exeercise is best option
good luck though

Answer 9

don't think so, not safe anyway. cut back on calories and exercise more, that is the only real way.

Answer 10

Don't do it!!
