I have a better question! Can you lose weight by making one-word posts to boost your post count? Ooooor would you lose more weight by posting two or more words?
amen brother
on a serious note
i smoked weed heavy ed a few times a day for over 10 years. am 29 now and i stoped smoking 3 years ago just cus it wasnt fun anymore, but i trained hard eat everyting on my path and never put on a pound of wheight i think i walked around 140lbs that was fine cuz that was only 5lbs away from my fight wheight but since i stoped i've put on like 15-20lbs i dont eat any of the junk food i used to eat on my pot smoking days i still train the same amount of time and i only lift 2 times aw for exploxive power not size( its been the same for 10years more or less)
so... that might just be me but i think theres a conection with weed and metabolic rate
again am not telling someone to go some a sack on anything like that nor i have a studie showing this just sharing my personal expirience
I smoke on a daily basis usually only at night to unwindd naw meannnn, healthier on the liver... haha jkk. Whenever I would take a break i noticed some sides which would be lack of appetite because while smoking your body adapts to the marijuana, which we all know as MUNCHIES. So depending on your tolerance and genetics it is definitely possible to lose weight smoking marijuana over the long term. From my experience most pot heads look like Hang Man. Skinny skinny skinny. Although while on cycle I smoke, helps me feed the machine, gives me a way of getting a buzz instead of drinking, helps you sleep at night oh & I feel it definitely helps ease the roid rage My .02 cents.
Alright, well here ya go for all who doubt the benefits of the miracle marijuana plant.
"The proportion of obese participants decreased with the frequency of cannabis use", noting that respondents who reported using the substance 'three days per week or more' were least likely to be obese compared to those who reported 'no cannabis use in the past 12 months. "Even if cannabis consumption increases appetite, people using cannabis are less likely to be obese than people who do not use cannabis."
Will show you all about the EndoCannabinoid System, which Marijuana works on, and how it can control our immune system and our metabolism. Still think Marijuana can't help people lose weight? Did you know that Marijuana has a chemical called THCV, that is an Appetite Suppressant? There is certainly MUCH MORE studying for us to do before we can exploit the full potential of this plant, and keeping us healthy... But until then, do your own research, and draw your own conclusions.
I didn't even have a life till i started smoking marijuana. Now i'm the healthiest i've been, i'm completely stable and balanced, have plenty of energy and actually enjoy working now. Of course you propagandists wouldn't know about that now would ya?
People, please get your Marijuana "Facts" from RELIABLE SOURCES. Goto Norml.org or something like that. They have ALL the "Facts" on there, and have updated results from studies. Marijuana is NOT harmful AT ALL. When will you sheeple wake up to this? Forget the "Reefer Madness" scare tactic of the 30's. Everyone on here are responsible adults right? Then ffs, please get your "Facts" only from reliable sources, NOT some anti-marijuana propaganda bs. Listen to me, Marijuana is MEDICINE!, all this crap i hear about "Medical Marijuana is a sham, and nothing more than a movement to legalize Marijuana", it's nothing more than anti-drug propaganda, fed to you by the very same people, who are hiding the "Fact" that we have 100's of ALL OUT CANCER CURES we know about (Which Cannabis Oil "The oil extracted from the Marijuana Buds", can infact cure all cancers, and there is plenty of evidence out there to support it), yet because they are NATURAL plants or what not, they can't make a profit, the government is NOT interested in curing people, only making them sicker. There is PLENTY of evidence ALL OVER THE NET about all of this, and while some sheeple see this as some sort of "Conspiracy Theory", those who can understand history, and take the time to learn a bit about it, you would see for yourself.
It's time to wake up sheeple, seriously all this Marijuana can affect this, or that, or can cause this or that, or is dangerous or harmful, or you don't need to smoke it, blah blah blah.... It's all nonsense, lies we all have been brought up to believe, and i DARE anyone to prove me otherwise, with nothing but truth and facts. Don't believe what i say, research it all for yourself. Hell, an ex DEA agent in like the 80's i think it was, said Marijuana, in it's natural form, is the safest substance known to man, meaning... The marijuana plant material: Buds, Stems, Leaves, Seeds etc.
As for Gyno, i've not heard one bit of conclusive 100% proof of it, and is still a myth.
Marijuana will NOT do ANY harm to your body whatsoever. Any and All attempts to say this plant "May" be harmful, has failed, and there is plenty of scientific proof outside of the US. People need to forget what they have been told about this plant, and research it themselves. Like i said, Norml.org is a very good site for starters.
interesting theres little risk with weed and it has helped me sleep self control is key when it comes to your diet and weed i like to smoke 1/4 of ajoint with my pre-workout drink great focus didnt arnold also smoke weed
I've always preferred a few puffs to drinking, and have always found it funny when some drunk dumb fuck is talking shit about potheads being dumb when they're far more impaired than myself high.
Back at the end of high school when I took the ACT for college I scored a overall 31 while high out of my mind with a 35 in science (missed only one question in science)
So I thought gee what if the smoke is fucking with my performance on the ACT with all the short/long term memory shit that people spew, so I quit for over a month did all sorts of ACT prep work which I did not do before when I had taken it high and guess what I still got a 31 on it. In my case it's obvious that it impaired my mental performance so fuck what some anti-weed people think is what I have always said.
As far as weed and weight loss, I'd have to say the only way weed is going to make you put on weight is if you can't control your munchies, which is really more of a self control thing which I've never had weed impair my self control,
furthermore I second that habitual smoking can lead to not being hungry and needing to smoke to stimulate appetite at all, no harvard study to back it up, just personal experience which to me is more important than some jack ass in a lab coat that's funded by the DEA to say "children drugs are bad"
Oh and for the long term memory bullshit theory I've been smoking consistently for about 16 years now, yet have far better long term memory than 99% of the non smokers I meet.
To illustrate this fact I'll use my long term memory that some of you morons think should be shot with that long of use to recall a situation and reasoning of someone I knew back after I had been smoking for about a year.
This chic only smoked weed before she went for her runs usually 5-10 miles, her reasoning was that since weed is fat soluble that by smoking before she ran it would better open up the pathways to stored body fat allowing more fat to be burned. I've never looked into this theory could be complete bullshit, but I've got to say she was in perfect shape.
A thought I get is that when doing boring long periods of cardio that weed could help you focus in on what your doing instead of having your mind wander, essentially enhance your focus for boring and mundane types of cardio.
Something else just came to mind on how weed could effect weight loss...
There are tons of weight loss products on the market that claim they get there effects by combating the effects of stress related fat storage, these days a lot of people must be stressed lol, but really, for most people weed is a great source of stress relief so if they don't blow it by eating everything in sight then it seems pretty obvious that factor alone could cause weight loss.
of course, unless your one of those people that get all paranoid, usually people that don't smoke much and is most likely really them subconsciously being worried that someone will know they are high
weed is the greatest on a bulk, just try to stick to your diet lol
there's no better feeling than crashing on the couch, a nice glow of post-workout endorphins running through you, protein shake in one hand and some ganja in the other
IMO it's the only drug that fits well with a bodybuilding lifestyle, except maybe an occasional psychedelic venture :P
