I was told I had to go on a strict diet with a dietitian and lose the weight because that is what caused it to happen. I didn't argue but I knew that I had no money for said dietitian. So instead I just continued on as I had been.

Recently I have been smoking more often than usual due to a lost job, because of my hormonal issues that cause me to be very touchy. Instead of waiting to get fired I quit and had no where to go. I went to my friends house. She is a medicinal smoker and we enjoyed a good 2 months together. But, since I have been smoking more often than not, I have noticed that my big belly has gone down considerably, I have got more energy and am a lot happier.

Does anyone know if there is a link between PCOS and marijuana? I cannot believe how much I have changed in just 2 months. Has anyone else experienced this? Really looking forward to feedback. :jointsmile:

i have no idea what PCOS is to be honest with you but i weighed 320 lbs at age 18 and was always a big person and about 3 weeks after i started use i lost weight pretty rapidly and am now 180 and maintain it. my diet is very poor i eat pizza and candy basicly. everything eles hurts my stomach i have some weird conditions lol im 26/m/6 foot even. so i do agree it definitly has somthing to do with weight control, the way i tell people is "it knows how much your supposed to weigh" sounds dumb but i cant explane it any other way. and yes before hand i tryed many diet,exersizes,ect.. with no suscess at all of weight loss.
