Cocaine made me GAIN weight Posted: 04-17-08 03:30am


For those of you considering trying cocaine for weight-loss purposes, I can tell you that not only is it a bad idea for the obvious reasons, but it can actually make you GAIN weight! I gained while using because I was so hungry from deprivation and depressed on the day following a binge. Also, regular use of cocaine can lead to loss of motivation, which doesn't help! After I quit snorting, I kept gaining weight, 75 pounds total. I managed to lose 40 of them, but have been struggling for over a year now to lose the remaining 35... There are safer, healthier ways to lose weight. And yes, if you REALLY want to slim down, you CAN do it without drugs and be proud of what you'll have accomplished.

You should be proud of the fact that you kicked the habit. Hang in there. You had a setback, but you CAN overcome it again. As for the weight loss: I lost 88 lbs myself, and I know how hard it is to do it. And, yes, I am proud of myself. lol

That stuff will not only do you harm but, wipe half your savings and your mind away. My son had over a thousand dollar a week habit for about two years. Kicked it himself. Now try and get fit and back to reality.
