Losing Weight And Smoking Marijuana. Posted: 07-31-07 15:10pm
Now i dont know where to put this so if
its in the wrong section i apologize. But
my dilemma is this. I recently started to
work out and enjoy it and losing weight
because of it. However, i do smoke weed
and i do get munchies which ofcourse when
your trying to lose weight its a major
obstacle. I dont feel like im making as
much progress as i should be because of
that. Second, i really dont want to stop
smoking, i enjoy it and it unwinds me
after a hard days work and then the gym.
If i dont smoke sometimes it leads to
insomnia as i am restless and cant go to
sleep. Is there anything? any herbs or any
natural substance that "kill" the munchies
so i can still smoke.
Thank you for your time.
p.s.
yes i know i should stop smoking weed, i
will when im ready, if ever. So please
lets not have 700 posts on that.

I found out that when I baked it in
brownies, my munchies were lessened
considerably. I don't know if that would
work for you or not. I also enjoyed the
baked goods better- the high was longer,
the green lasted longer, it was a smoother
experience all around for me.
I also tried to be smarter than my
tastebuds and
I stocked up on bottled water...everytime
I wanted something to munch, I would take
huge drinks of water and that generally
subsided it. I also stocked up on healthy
snacks like fruit and airpopped popcorn in
the house. I also would tell myself that
"you're not hungry...it's just the
weed...you're not hungry...it's just the
weed..."
For me, it was a mindgame, but I managed
to lose 40+lbs while I was high most of
the time.
Hmmm...something else-I don't know how you
you eat in general. Like, do you enjoy
fast food? Processed foods?
See, I stopped eating those long ago and
they no longer even taste good to me now,
so when I did the green (I stopped for
other reasons) I didnt' even desire that
crap. Maybe if you (need to) change your
diet all around that will help you get
into better habits in general.
Good luck! I managed to lose that weight
and keep it off and I am very happy with
my health and appearance now. It is worth
the work!

WOW, thats exactly what im doing except i
dont bake it because thats too much weed
to put in. lol. I just dont want to feel
the hunger pangs thats what i dont want,
but im looking for somethig where i just
wont get the need to eat. i dont eat fast
foods or sodas, my stomach just doesnt
like it anymore. what i pretty much mean
is that i dont want to eat anything.
my snacks are usually yogurt with fruits
and granola bars. yea they are low in fat
but they still have fat.
