Or is this a common misconception? If it's true, does it help you lose weight

You eat more...you're bright. Even if it does boost your metabolism, it makes you want to eat more, therefore canceling out the effect.

I heard it increases your metabolism too. Not sure if it's true though. If it does, you could eat healthy munchies. I find that even fruit tastes really good when I'm stoned 'coz it heightens my senses.

If it does increase your metabolism, and eating sweet stuff cancels out the effects, would this make you put on more weight or just mean you are likely to get away with eating junk food when high, depending on how much you eat?

Also, I heard that eating when stoned makes the effects wear off quicker. Is this true? Once, about 17 months ago I got to stoned and found it too much to handle and my mate cooked me some food to help it wear off coz I found the effects quite intense as I didn't smoke it that often at first.

I did feel the effects wear off after eating half my meal, but I couldn't really tell if it made the effects wear off, or whether it just wore off by itself coz it was a while since I smoked it.

I also heard that if you want to make weed wear off quickly for some reason - e.g.: you're mums home and ya don't want her too see you stoned, you should drink loads of water and you're body would piss it out to sober up quicker. I'm not sure if it works, but I smoked some skunk one night and pissed it out about 2 hours after and I could tell coz my piss was BRIGHT GREEN. Does anyone know more about this? Answers to this question will be well appreciated!

Thanks

- Sam

I don't think that drinking more water is an accurate assessment of decrease in your "highness."

THC isn't water soluble, which explains why you can smoke with water bongs/pipes.

As for eating...I don't think that caused it either.

I was talkin to my mum today and tellin her I wasn't happy takin my antidepressants 'coz the common side effects increase your appetite and make you gain weight. I don;t want that shit slowin down my metabolism so I stopped taking them. I might take 1 or 2 a week or something. I just hope my depression doesn't come back. But anyway, I said how unhappy I was about the bastard pills and she said that smoking dope makes you hungry, which we all know, and I said to her it increases your metabolism, believin what I've heard and she said it was not true. \she said if anything it slows your metabolism down. But I'm 99% sure she was bullshitting 'coz she doesn't approve of me smoking dope, although she doesn't stop me 'coz I'm 19 and old enough to do what I want. She would rather me smoke pot than drink though, I think. She said that the only reason they lose weight is because they are too busy gettin high, but I didn't take her seriously. Does anyone konw anymore on this?
