No.

Maybe on weekends.
but that's only because pot and alcohol go hand in hand.
I gained about twenty pounds when I stopped smoking for my job a few years back. Always thought it was because it was a desk job.

Fixed that for you.
Im guessing this is a coincidence based on demographic, not that weed actually helps you lose weight.
It's just because fat people are less likely to be social, case closed. I live in Vancouver - so everyone and their dog does it, and yeah most of them are skinny but it's a misleading statistic because pretty much everyone is skinny anyway, and some of the biggest stoners I know are fat. When smoking weed my brother usually consumes about 2+kg of food, the only reason he's still skinny is how many sports he does.

indeed, it wasn't a argument against pot smoking, and didn't have anything to do with not gaining weight.
but i'm just saying. I at least have witnessed that out of those who smoke pot / deal with pot also like to just drink and get drunk, often.

No they don't.

They do go hand in hand in my experience.

I blacked out.
Then again, I was drinking spirits.
Pot's just a gateway drug. First you decide to smoke a spliff to lose a few pounds, but before you know it you're an eight-stone smackhead in line at the needle exchange.

I hope to Christ that was sarcasm.
They probably weigh less because they buy so much weed that they can't even afford food anymore. :v:
[editline]you can type anything in here i don't even see how it works but it just does[/editline]
one time my friend got the munchies and all he had to snack on was an apple and a bottle of smart water
After smoking for quite a long time I can say that my cravings after smoking became less and less. I mean I still get hungry but not like attack the fridge hungry. Also I tend to eat less in general now, not to the point of being a problem but at a normal level.

I like how this image focuses on the worst of alcohol and the least terrible of weed.
Apparently a few glasses of alcohol a week is good for you (In the form of wine).
If they made it legal i would put on weight since i wouldn't have to walk so fucking far to find safe places to toke
I thought getting regularly stoned got you fat anyway, since you usually have nothing better to do than sit around and eat.

Holy shit so that's what toke means!
Man I was puzzled by that word a long time.

This is one of those to good to be true shit again things again. Reading on the net most people get hungry from smoking weed to.

That's because the fruit contains vitamins.
But if you drank orange juice or something you'd get the same amount of vitamins but with a much better taste.
I ain't fat, but I ride a longboard almost daily and drink heaps of water and tea 24/7.
I generally hardly eat anything, so eating more than average when stoned isnt really that bad for me
I've actually lost a lot of weight since I started smoking.
Crazy.

Cigarettes are pretty good anorectics, nothing new in that regard.
Marijuana being legal would make more sense then Alcohol being legal.
'nuff said.
Weed is awesome.
i'm being less likely to be obese right now at 10:20 in the morning :smile:
