Ive gained 6 pounds in 2 weeks!!! Holy crap! It's just that when i'm high I eat, and eat and eat! I just have no self control when im high. What should I do? Who else has this prob and what do YOU do about it. The munchies are the only bad thing I have to deal with when I smoke anymore....Ugh...I don't wanna get chubby!
self control usually works fine in situations like that.
Of course but I have none when im high:(
well then in that case you need to determine whats more important, being high or not getting 'chubby'.
Oh really? You think so? Thats my issue, there has to be SOME way to have both!
healthy snacks
fruit, egg whites, nuts. oh and popcorn (non-buttered) isnt that bad for you either.
^^ yeah thats what I was thinking. I know its obvious and all. I just wish there was some secret knowledge I was missing haha. I know theres not but oh well. Damn you marijuana, making everything taste better!
I wish there was some other way. I love junk food. I just dont get to eat it very often. Good for you food isnt bad though. Especially strawberries. Grapes are good too. Since fruit is sweet it can help solve cravings for sugary stuff. I also drink chocolate milk a lot when I smoke. I get the 50% less sugar kind. Its a good chocolate fix but you're also getting the healthy stuff from milk. Yogurt is also good but you cant eat too much of it.
Yeah I love fruit, like Pineapple and grapes. Its such a pain in the ass though when your high b/c you don't crave all of that good stuff. You crave Burger King and Pizza. *sigh*
Pineapples and grapes are loaded with sugar. Pick your "smart" snakes carefully.
Also, do you exercise regularly? If not, you're most likely going to put on the pounds as you get older even without the herb.

LMAO. I'm with the rest. Snack right and you should be fine.
Besides, a little chub is good. I can't speak for the rest of the guys, but I like a woman to be able to take what I'm dishin' out without breakin a hip. I've seen girls that I would snap like a chicken bone in bed. No one wants that. :)
actually....anything sweet, or high on the glycemic index, will increase your sugar cravings ten fold (fruit, carrots, starches, etc)...when you are hungry, have a snack higher in fat and protein, the fat makes you feel full......you should read up on atkins..it will teach you how to eat right, and not have these needs...i never eat sugar or junk food, starches, potatoes, etc...and i dont miss it at all.....there is a way to have the food and weed, you just have to know how your body works and what it really needs when it talks to you, i guess...or, like higher said, have some self control....
this is a helpful site, give it a look....you can see exactly what you are putting in your mouth, and track how much you are burning off, etc...

chew gum
Sure weed makes everything taste better but it also makes everything feel, sound, look and smell better. Instead of eating try yoga or reading or walking or dancing or playing chess or masturbating or tae-bo or origami or playing guitar or writing a novel or ...:jointsmile:
yikes...gum is BAD.....it has carbs, for one, and for two, it causes cravings.....
i also forgot to say to drink water...lots and lots of water..especially if you have gained some weight...it will flush it out in 2 days or so, and your weight will come down a few pounds..usually when you gain that much weight that quick, it is the carbs holding the water you have drank, and salt...
also, avoiding caffeine helps...one other common thing that causes the need for sweet foods, or other bad foods...
okay, i think i am done this time....
im the same way. im not huge, but i swear id weigh at least 15 pounds less if it wasnt for the munchies.
I'm the same, i eat and eat and eat. I'm about 14 stone, although alot of the wieght is in my legs and upper body. I reckon i've only got about a stone of weight that i dont need.
Chewing gum is no good though, you'll confuse your body so it'll make more acid, giving you heart burn and it'll make you even more hungry.

Hi princess come chat 4 a bit?
Hello dearest! How you doing today? I hope it's not still cold and rainy over there! We've lost the sun, although it's not raining and it's still fairly warm.Quote:

What have you got planned?
If I know ima bout to get 'blazed to all ends I try and eat a full meal before hand. Does the trick 80% of the time.
I agree a bit with the basics of atkins (starches and too much carbs are bad), but fat is quite bad as well. Don't eat a bunch of bacon and junk like that. Fat is fat and too much will allways be bad. Especially the fake ones in stuff like margarine. I like real butter :)
I doubt you're exercising enough to burn what you're eating at the moment. You are responsible for your actions, high or not, you can't blame the 'muchies' for everything and in my opinion anything. Do you play any sports? I would do that if i were you, but i've never heard you talk about sports so i dunno if you like them.
pig out on wheat thins or something. or get some of those rice cake snacks to destroy when youre high.
we are only allowed certain fats and a certain percentage per day......enough of anything is unhealthy for you...it works quite well...we have the fat to curb the appetite, and you need fat..but too many people think we can eat bacon and sausage and pepperoni all day....it is like anythinig else, all in moderation..
I love pepperoni!Quote:

From what I could tell, here's my advice:
- You need a balanced diet. All these diet-type things are OK, but really in the end it's just eating normal amounts and good stuff. This means you need carbs, and fats, and protein. As for fats and carbs, I really think what kind they are might help. If the fat is unsaturated and/or naturally occuring, and the carbs are natural starches and sugars, awesome. If you're eating lots of trans fats and lots of corn syrup (I truly believe these two things cause lots of... fat) that's not good.
That's not to say you can't have any. So, sure, go ahead and go to Burger King once or twice a week. I look up the nutrition info on any place that offers it, I've found the fries are the big culprit. Cut the fries and you've killed half the problem right there.
Cut down on soda. I need to do this but I'm having trouble >< Anything with corn syrup for that matter. I personally drink lots of milk, you should be able to find something. You don't need to eliminate this stuff completely unless you want to be a meatless zombie, but as someone stated, girls look better when they've got a bit of substance and look healthy.
Oh, and exercise. I know it's a bitch, but as someone else said, you'll be unhealthy even if you don't eat a ton. I watched a Penn and Teller recently (Have you seen it, Rebgirl? I know your political views are similar to mine and I like this show, don't agree with everything but it's interesting) and a guy being interviewed said fat people who exercise are healthier than skinny people who don't. That about sums that up. Hope any of that helped.
hey the same thing was happening to me... so this is how i handel my weight now... first of all when I am high .. . I try to not look at the cookies and stuff.,... sooo instead of eating fatty fooods...../... fill your self up with apples, grapes, and straw berrys or any fruit... which taste good and I am pretty sure you cant get fat off fruits... so yea... yesterday i ate like 6 apples and shit load of grapes lol
Yeah I recently lost 55 pounds. So yeah I excercise alot and I watch what I eat. I'm 130 pounds now and i'm 5'8". Its just that recently ive been going to Burger King alot. It's no biggie really. I just smoked and all I had was the serving size of Light Pringles.
Don't buy anything else at the grocery store except for rice.
Trust me. I have my own way of controlling weight. It's not healthy but it works.
Throwing up? that's not good. Neither is starving yourself if that's it. Those are the only two unhealthy things i can think of to keep off weight.
I usually dont get munchies off of weed, but when i get wasted(alcohol) Chanellos is at my fucking door with twenty two damn pizzas every time.
yeah ive been MIA for a while now...about 3 years. It's not really something im proud of.
i was about to suggest this. ill fill myself up and then smoke, and then take a walk outside or somethingQuote:

Haha. That's all I got...let me know if you take the advice and if it worked! :)
you're trickin yourself out. You control your mind and what you do....next time you've got the munchies just be like...."Man fuckin eatin I dont need that shit"....and i find its easier to have confidence in yourself when high....at least I do..
I'm sorry to hear that. :( Unfortunately, that may be part of the reason why you're gaining -- it could be a metabolic thing. It's good that you exercise, though (that should give your metabolism a decent boost), as long as you're not overdoing it. I totally agree with the healthy snacks advice... go for things that you won't feel guilty about eating. Also, be sure to drink plenty of water (if you don't already) to knock out any dehydration-related hunger.Quote:
