So my tolerance break ended on september fourth. I have gone back to smoking daily since. I have pretty much lost my appetite. This never has happened before, and I can go a whole day without feeling hungry what so ever. I guess I have lost energy as well because of this. I dont work out nearly as much as I used to. Im 5 foot 10 and used to weigh 175 pounds with a small body fat percent. I have gotten skinnier, and have lost weight. I do not know how much I weigh now. My weight doesnt really matter to me that much but Im just a little bummed because I used to be hungry all the time. I also dont get munchies from smoking weed anymore. Im thinking this will pass, as I went from no pot at all to pot everyday again. Sure, I do get higher than I did before the break, but ATM the cons seem to outweigh the pros. Im sure my body is just a bit confused and needs to adapt. Plus THC is a like a vitamin for me, I perform better in most areas when Im stoned. Can anyone relate?
Well. I can't say that has ever happened to me or anyone I know honestly.. Are you on any medication at all? Do you have any conditions? Like High Blood Pressure or something?
sometimes pot does seem to suppress my hunger more increase it. but i do also get the munchies sometimes. maybe you should quit toking if the cons outweigh the pros. after years of daily smokin, i kinda feel the same way, but it's hard to really quit.
My friend also experienced dramatic loss of appetite while chronically smoking. Paradoxic effect, I always fatten up when on the 'jane. I think you're right though prone and it's just a temporary thing. you should of course try and eat even if you're not hungry, at least to keep your weight from falling further. you are losing fat and muscle, fat is easy to regain, muscle not so much, so try and make your meals very proten-oriented and avoid filling up on fatty and sugary things. i am like this now, I eat very little yet work out, so when I do eat, its nothing but carbs and protein. even consider getting protein to drink in shakes and just have one a day, it will balance out the daily loss of muscle from low diet especially when combined with something as small as 20 pushups a day or whatever.
i usually get the fucken MUNCHIES. have you tried more than one strain? it could just be an effect of the strain that you have...i've had strains that have caused appetite suppression, they've all been speedy weed.
For me, Marijuana has always decresed my apetite. I pretty much NEVER get the 'munchies' and if I choose to smoke a resonable ammount during the day, I eat very little.
Ok, Im not on medication, Im very healthy. Im losing muscle mass because I have like no fat what so ever. I do about 20-50 millitary pushups a day, I used to pump iron though. I do have very rough sex just about everyday, except love making which isnt so fuck her brains out you know? So my ass is just getting really jacked from all the thrusting haha. I dont really see losing alot my muscle mass as a problem. The only reason I used to work out alot was to defend myself because I was in a hostile enviroment. About the buds Im smoking, I only smoke headys. I havent smoked non-dank buds in years. I like to enjoy the taste of my buds. The strains I have been smoking recently are Blue Dream, organic AK47 my buddy grew, grandaddy purple, and some other dank buds with out a name. My THC intake is very high, its only been about a month and a half and I already have a bit of a tolerance. I smoke about 5-8 times a day. Its kind of hard to limit myself when everybody in my life smokes alot of pot. Its really hard too, I used to be a big meat eater, couldnt get enough of it. I have had this nagging feeling in my head for about two years to become a vegitarian. I didnt really want to be, I just felt that eating meat was wrong, but I loved it so much so I would give into desire. Now, when my body really needs meat, I feel nauseated by it. I ate some boneless wings today and almost vommited. Even the smell makes me queazy now. This has just been going on for a week, but I am afraid that my body is rejecting meat, and soon I will become a veggi.
I just wanted to use one that nobody else had haha. I like the color too, maybe my subconscious is trying to tell me more.
there's some KILLER Blue Dream circulating northern california right now...smoked some GOOD grandaddy purp last night, it was nice! but blue dream is really one of the best strains i've ever had. ...and just thinking about it makes me hungry...HAHA
The thing to bear in mind is that the effects of weed are from two different chemicals. THC and the other handful of Cannabanoids present. THC gives the "high" introspective and slightly psychedelic effects. The other cannabanoids give the "stoned" sleepy dreamy effects. Depending on the strain, sativas are higher in THC content than Indicas, and the age of the weed, THC breaks down to other cannabanoids over time, you will get different effects. THC tends to inhibit appetite, while cannabanoids tend to increase it. THC effects don't last as long as the cannabanoids effects. That is why, at least for me, if I smoke some strong sativa with a high THC content I lose my appetite at first. When the THC effects diminish and the "stoned" feeling predominates I get the raging munchies. Test it out for yourself, I think you will find this to be true.
