I need to lose some weight, so trying to reduce drinking to as close to zero amount as possible at least in the near future.

But it would be nice to have an alternative after one of those long days or lazy weekend days.

All the ones I was reading about was Delta 9. Not really sure of the difference between 8 and 9.

How many MG's of THC are the gummies you usually use?
Main difference is Delta 8 isn’t as strong as 9.

If you’re just starting out I’d go with 25mg, wait an hour and see how you feel. Gummies can hit pretty hard if you overdo it. Worst case though you take a nap.

Just beware of the munchies, have healthy snacks on hand.

Heavy users might do 500mg.

If you try it, give it an hour or more to kick in.

Thanks for the info. The ones I was looking at (that I can buy here in person) were 30 MGs. I'll definitely start out with 1 the 1st time. And maybe get some carrot/celery sticks.

Re: Medical/Recreational Marijuana thread

I did a similar thing sdskinsfan, I don't have a federal clearance anymore so I have no need to concern myself with any issues related to switching from beer to Delta-9. I take 15mg gummies, sometimes 1.5 or 2, but generally take half at a time. My motivation was also weight loss and hangover avoidance. As I get older, I tend to get mild hangovers, but it's much more frequent than when I was young. Nothing comparable as it pertains to my Delta 9 gummies.

I also find that I crave different food after a gummy than when I'm drunk. I doordash less fried chicken sandwiches at night and tend to crave more sweets. I still don't have much of a sweet tooth, so I don't eat a ton, but I imagine that helps my waistline as well.

Re: Medical/Recreational Marijuana thread

I didn't take the guy's advice on Sunday, and bit off a little more than I could chew, literally. They were out of the gummies, so I had to get the cereal bars. They are way stronger and harder to measure.

Man, it was full effort to stay awake for the game Sunday lol. That stuff works. I was as calm as I've ever been in my life during a football game. Need to take some of that tonight.
