As someone living in a legal state, and as someone easily probe to breakdowns, I’m a fairly consistent - dare I say, heavy - user of marijuana and its related family of products. A significant part of the high experience is munchies. Earth-shaking, stomach-crippling, pantry-clearing munchies. I’m not talking about a bag of chips in one night, I’m talking about literally everything in sight plus an Uber Eats order or two. I will frequently get blasted and fifteen minutes later find myself doubled over on my bed from the pain of trying to finish three bubble teas in one sitting - as dessert. This is not healthy for my fitness, this is not healthy for my emotions, and this is most certainly not healthy for my wallet. I have gained far too much weight in the last month alone. Yes, I have been diagnosed with BED lol. I also suffer from body dysmorphia, which the weight gain doesn’t mesh well with.

I’d like to explore dropping drugs to the curb in the future, but weed still provides me with a lot more positives than drawbacks in the way of an emotional safety net and I’m not prepared to go cold turkey. For the time being, does anyone have any suggestions for curbing these munchies? They are extremely powerful and decimating both my ass and abs. Nothing has worked so far beyond caffeine, which is only effective to a minor degree. Any advice appreciated! ty
