I love weed but my personal problem with it is the overeating. I get the munchies so hard i always eat way too much. I want to lose weight but it feels almost impossible while smoking weed. And tips or tricks against it?

    When I get high, I always have a bunch of watery fruit and veggies available. I’ve eaten entire pineapples before.

    You gotta make sure you have nothing but fruits & veggies available. Nothing else but those things.

    Fills you up faster, is healthier & doesn’t leave you with large shits usually. Unlike a lot of junkfood does.

    You could prepare healthy snacks before (!) smoking.

    some inspiration:

    -vegetable sticks with hummus/guacamole

    -fruits (frozen grapes are awesome)

    -roasted chickpeas

    -popcorn (without drenching it in butter)

    Look for something with a lot of Humulene. Humulene suppresses appetite and can counteract the munchies. I have a live resin cart with a bunch of Humulene that works for me. I also have an occasional customer who is older and will forget to eat if she has too much Humulene.

      Thanks for the pro tip. I found my munchies vary a lot depending on the strain, so maybe this is the reason.

    I keep the unhealthy junk food to a minimum in the apartment. But more it’s that I don’t get munchies anymore. Now I smoke to ignore hunger (I’m aware that’s bad too lol)

    I’m reading this as I eat banana bread over the sink, after smoking a bowl. I commiserate, and I hope to hear good advice too.

      Jolly ranchers are my go to. Not a health food by any means, but they last so long it keeps my calorie consumption way down.
