Can weed help you lose weight?

#29049324 - 12/08/24 12:35 AM (1 year, 10 months ago)

I actually don't get cravings if I'm high. If anything I get less hungry. Maybe because it's I'm a stress eater and I don't feel compelled to relieve stress if I'm already high.

Seems like some studies support that marijuana users are less likely to be obese, but are inconclusive.

I dunno man. Weed to get slim sounds a bit like flying out to Columbia to get clean!

I will say this though back when I was a pothead I was kinda amazed by the sheer amount of food I used to eat without becoming obese! Don't think I'd get away with that today though...

Will it help you move though?

Unless you have strong tolerance, weed will probably at the least make you feel a bit heavier, a bit lazier and a bit less likely to want to walk around the block.

However, I know there are some people who do exercise after smoking and treat it as a pre-workout. Your mileage may vary. So I would suggest you chart your physical activity after smoking. If you move a lot less, then even if it helps you avoid stress-eating it may not help you lose weight if you become a couch potato.

I still get big munchies but am slim. I think weed also burns energy a bit so what you eat is partly a compensation

Cancer patients use weed to help them eat more to gain weight, despite the super nauseating chemotherapy drugs they use. Drugs so corrosive nurses must wear gloves to dispense the capsules.

So, the odds are heavily against you to lose weight from weed.

I only really smoke in the evenings, which is past the time I work out, and the time where I really get sugar cravings. If there's something better I might try it. Shrooms seem to also prevent cravings but are a stimulant so I don't bother with it in the evening.

i believe i've read the studies you're referring to, at some point. anecdotally i'd imagine that it would have something to do with the dose. getting too high tends to kill my appetite.

That's not true for the most part, I love walking when I'm high.
I'll often get super high and stroll to then local shop listening to music.

Takes me a while longer but that's part of the enjoyable journey.

If I smoke everyday then it doesn't really change my physical activity, or it can even stimulate me to walk. But if I don't have a tolerance and take a decent dose, then it definitely makes physical activity harder for me.

That being said, I've spent days when I was very high wandering around, so there's something to be said about it going with physical activity in some cases.

But again my point is that mileage varies on this, I've heard very different answers, which was the point of my post. So your experience may not be universally applicable; neither is mine. And the answer of someone who smokes all the time won't be the same as the answer of someone who smokes once a month or once a year, etc.
