Weight Loss
-
I abstained from cannabis for three decades, but resumed due to back discomfort, and at that time I was roughly 225 pounds. Now, three years later, I am approximately 195 pounds. I've been utilizing strong, body-centric strains for pain alleviation, which appear to suppress my appetite. However, the daytime strains make me ravenous, to the point where snacks like chips and chocolates don't stand a chance when I reach for the sativa-dominant varieties. So, the type of strain could also be impacting this situation.

The original post asked if anyone had experienced weight loss while consuming. The poster shared that they had dropped from 165 to 135 within a year and noticed a reduction in their appetite. They also mentioned an article which suggested that cannabis can both decrease and increase appetite, and that regular users are less likely to be obese compared to non-users or the general population.
The poster mentioned that during a tolerance break, their hunger increased but they got full quicker, presumably due to a smaller stomach size. They asked for others' experiences.
A response confirmed similar experiences. The responder noted that during a tolerance break and initial consumption, they experienced extreme hunger. However, with daily consumption, this was replaced by a smaller diet and increased exercise. The responder stated that they were around 110kg and didn't mind losing weight, but expressed concern that a weight of 135 may be too low.

A user shared their experience of losing weight while consuming, saying they went from 165 to 135 in a year and noticed a decrease in their appetite. They pointed out an article they read that suggests consumption can both lessen and increase appetite. According to the article, people who use at least thrice a week are less likely to be obese compared to those who don't or the general population.
The user also shared they are currently on a break, and while they feel hungrier, they seem to get full faster, possibly due to their stomach shrinking.
They asked others to share their experiences. In response, another user revealed they began smoking because their exercise routine was disturbing their sleep required for school. They observed that it eventually made them lazy and overweight. They didn't notice any improvement in their performance; instead, they felt a decrease in strength. They emphasized that everyone's experience varies.

Continue your efforts, Reggaelover1 suggested. Sustainability is achievable if you maintain discipline and ensure your food consumption doesn't exceed the suggested daily limit.

Stop consuming the light, airy substance and you'll shed a significant amount of weight. I managed to lose around 27 kilograms in a single year without ever feeling starved.
Consider the Glycaemic Index diet.

Six months ago, I tipped the scales at 176 kilograms, believing that my life was at risk due to obesity.

The paraphrased text: Any weight loss achieved through drugs won't be lasting. Well, in that case, I should continue my current routine. Thanks.

A healthier diet is more beneficial for weight loss compared to smoking, which doesn't contribute anything to the process.
