Weight Loss and Gain
Hello,
I have smoked Marijuana daily for10+ years weighing around 175-180lbs, 5"11 Male. Hashimotos thyroid, Synthroid .75 daily. Thyroid has been level for 7+ years, blood levels checked every 3 months. Smoking Marijuana 2-3X daily. I would eat pretty healthy but could have a bad day eating and was not affected. November 2010 I stopped Smoking cold turkey. In December 2010 I began to notice that my pants were tight. I jumped on the scale and noticed that I was weighing in at 190-194lbs. I began to diet and joined the GYM. I would eat egg whites in the AM and skinless chicken breast with a vegetable for lunch and a sensible dinner. No soda, only water or tea. I was never able to get under 186lbs with a strict diet plan. December 2011 I began to smoke again daily. :( I have now noticed that my weight is dropping. I have not been to the Gym in a month and have been eating OK.. Last week I weighed in at 185lbs. It being superbowl week, my diet has been extremely bad. I have been eating everything from burgers to Icecreame. Today I only weighed 189lbs. When I stopped smoking last time I was concerned about the weight gain and now Im concerned about the weight loss. Putting all the pieces together, the pattern does sound logical. Thoughts?

I think marijuana is pretty fine. I think if you remain active and maintain a healthy lifestyle you'll lose weight.
I have decided to drop the smoking all together again and hire a personal trainer. My first session is tomorrow. :) Thanks!!
