    I haven't went 2 weeks without smoking for a long time, so i'm not really sure haha
    maybe you just don't get the munchies as much anymore since you're not smoking, so you don't eat as much.. i dunno

    Ive lost about 15 lbs this last month of not smoking, but its intentional. Since I'm on a diet, and am about to crack below the 200lb mark for the first time since like 7th grade lol.


    But I think Sara hit the nail on the head about not eating as much since your not stoned getting munchies.

    I gained weight from smoking plus being on meds that cause you to gain weight dose not help any. I need to not munch out as much when I smoke

    Awesome on the weight loss dude

    Yeah since I get my job back and started smoking more I have noticed my appetite increase greatly and when stoned I am hungry no matter if I just ate. That leads to eating, especially junk food and other things which will make you gain weight. I have gained 7 pounds or so since I started smoking heavily again.

    If you get the munchies alot when stoned you just might be eating alot less without noticing it

    Did you gain weight when smoking?

    You probably were used to eating so much from munchies that when you stopped smoking you were eating less than you usually eat and lost weight.

    A lot of people notice that when they quit smoking weed their appetite decreases somewhat (not usually a permanent thing). It did for me for a few months afterward, but now it's back full force.
    I lost weight when I was smoking but I munched out a lot, so who knows. Pot can raise metabolism. You're probably still having effects of that while eating even less, thus the weight loss. Just my take.

    Same here im skinny and whenever I take a smoking break I lose about 5-7 pounds and become really skinny. I eat like a pig if im sober or if im high I have natural munchies so whenever I quit smoking I never eat any less than when I am high.

    SO hence my prediction is that it has to do with the fact that thc stores in your fat so when you quit smoking theres some scientific thing that goes on in your body making you lose weight.
