I love weed but my personal problem with it is the overeating. I get the munchies so hard i always eat way too much. I want to lose weight but it feels almost impossible while smoking weed. And tips or tricks against it?

You could prepare healthy snacks before (!) smoking.

some inspiration:

-vegetable sticks with hummus/guacamole

-fruits (frozen grapes are awesome)

-roasted chickpeas

-popcorn (without drenching it in butter)

Veggies and hummus are my go to but also eating before smoking helps

Look for something with a lot of Humulene. Humulene suppresses appetite and can counteract the munchies. I have a live resin cart with a bunch of Humulene that works for me. I also have an occasional customer who is older and will forget to eat if she has too much Humulene.

Thanks for the pro tip. I found my munchies vary a lot depending on the strain, so maybe this is the reason.

I keep the unhealthy junk food to a minimum in the apartment. But more it’s that I don’t get munchies anymore. Now I smoke to ignore hunger (I’m aware that’s bad too lol)
