When i first started smoking pot i never used to eat and if I did not much. But now a friend of mine cannot stop. All we do is smoke and about an hour in we eat like fools and its all over we fell screwed.
Does anyone have any tips so that we do not eat. THings to do things to eat that keep us satisfied but do not make us want to eat more.
Any help would be appreciated

Well; I can relate to that!
Advice: - instead of eating a lot; have a litre of orange juice with you. Whenever you feel like filling your stomach, drink some juice! (trust me; this works a great deal )
- have different kinds of food ready: because even though chocolate tastes godly when you've smoked the herb; you could keep eating chocolate till you drop dead! Have things ready like: cornflakes, fruit, yoghurt... (these are much more healthy than all those candybars. )
I used to have a problem too. I ate too much sweet stuff, gained lots of pounds and started having blood pressure troubles. But now I eat more healthy, and what do you know: I actually feel better when I started to eat more healthier!
Good luck!

From my basic understanding of it, there's a part of the brain (a glucose center) that controls feelings of hunger. When you smoke, the THC excites the cells in this area, creating a feeling of hunger. There's not a whole lot to do aside from either ignore the feeling, or give in to it. There is a cactus from South Africa which is now being investigated for weight loss properties. (called Hoodia gordonii). It is ~10,000 times as potent as glucose. What it does is to calm the same cells down in the brain that the THC excites, thereby creating a sensation of 'fullness' or not being hungry. However, this lasts generally for 24 hours, so I would be hesitant to recommend something like this for the munchies.
Regardless, the fact that it is said to be 10,000x as potent as glucose makes me think that eating sugar may be somewhat effective in creating a full sensation. However this would present the problems of a sugar high - eating too much, and then crashing.
Just my thoughts...

I have tried and been unsucessful in not eating while being under the influence of marijuana. Its impossible. Food is even the only thing I think of. I try to get my mind off it, but i cant. I dont really know what to say, i cant give any good advice , but I will try having orange juice when im munchin....a little snack wont hurt either...

haha not the only one? i think every person who has ever smoked some ganj has had the intense desire to EAT EAT EAT, personally i always go for toast or popcorn, that and i find my self doing handfulls and handfulls of goldfish. in terms of avioding the munchies, i would suggest what has already been sugessted and have some fruit juice or chocolate milk laying around that you can drink.

It's all fine and good until I give in and eat one bite. Then it's game over. I turn into a human garburator, inhaling every food particle in sight.

You could try drinking a few heaping glasses of water, that may help with the hunger a bit, but really in the end all you can do is ignore it. Just buy some snacks in bulk, like those huge goldfish boxes a friend of mine used to have, and chow away at that
Perhaps you could try chewing gum or such also, to at least be chewing something while you're stoned, as the hunger is made from the drug anyway so it may be possibly to help it psychologically

Timtams are fucking good!!!
Get some orange pekoe tea, nible two corners off of a timtam and suck the tea into it, melting the insides. Then MOW! Holy crap, so good!!! I had these suckers when I was camping this summer, was stoned the whole time and inhaled these things. Mmm boy, whoever hasn't tried them like this is missing out.
