Introduction
The munchies can make you feel like the best version of yourself, but it’s not always a good thing. If you have some snacks nearby while stoned and then don’t stop eating them, they can become unhealthy and make you feel tired or sick. Try these tips to stop your munchies before they get out of hand:
Get your body moving.
- Get your body moving.
Exercise can help you feel better, as it releases endorphins that make you feel good and happy. You don’t have to go for a run or lift weights–even just walking around will help! If possible, do some moving meditation while high (see below). Try doing something active with friends or loved ones; social interactions are also helpful when trying to get out of a bad mood.
- Examples of exercises that can be done while high: walking around outside; yoga poses; dancing alone in front of the mirror (this one may sound strange but trust me–it’s fun); anything else where you’re moving around but not too vigorously
Eat something healthy.
The munchies are real, and they can be intense. But there are ways to tame them so you don’t end up eating a whole box of ice cream or a bag of chips.
- Eat something healthy. If you’re getting high on marijuana or other drugs, it’s important to eat something that will give your body nutrients and energy instead of making it feel sluggish or groggy. Think about what foods will make sense with the high: maybe some fruit would be good; maybe not so much chocolate cake (although if that’s what sounds good to you then go for it). It’s also helpful if the food is easy to digest–so no greasy fries!
Drink water.
Drinking water is one of the best ways to help your body process THC. The active ingredient in cannabis, tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), is fat-soluble and can be stored in your body for up to 30 days after you smoke or eat it. Drinking lots of water helps flush this out, preventing the munchies and helping you feel better overall.
If you’re not a fan of plain old H2O, try adding some lemon juice or other fruit juices for flavor–but remember not to drink too much alcohol while high! Alcohol will make matters worse by making it harder for your body to absorb nutrients from food items such as pizza that could be causing cravings right now anyway.
Stay busy and distracted.
When you’re getting high and feeling the munchies, there are a few things you can do to distract yourself.
- Stay busy and distracted. Do something else. Watch a movie or TV show, play video games or board games with friends or family members, clean your room (or someone else’s), go for a walk outside in nature–the options are endless! If it helps keep your mind off food for longer than five minutes at a time without making you feel like an idiot who can’t control himself around snacks and sweets (which will only make matters worse), then go ahead and try it out! Just remember not to overdo it; if one thing doesn’t work then move onto the next one until eventually something does help keep those pesky hunger pangs away long enough so they don’t become overwhelming cravings again later on down the road…
Takeaway:
While the munchies are a common side effect of getting high, they can be avoided. If you’re looking for a way to stop the munchies after smoking or eating cannabis products, try eating healthy food and drinking water instead of junk food. You can also get your body moving by taking a walk or doing some stretches; this will help keep your appetite under control so that it doesn’t lead to unhealthy eating habits later on in life!
Conclusion
If you’re trying to quit marijuana, then these tips will be very helpful in keeping away the munchies. You can also try other methods like exercising or taking a shower to help curb your cravings.
