I have used medical marijuana to help me stop drinking as much. The result is that i use CBD's and marijuana to help with my arthritis pain and CBD are a non-psychoactive way to accomplish that. The side benefit is that i drink only socially now and have lost 30 pounds over the last year. Barring my over indulging and getting the munchies.
That's awesome :)
I highly recommend choosing your foods by your blood type. You'll be able to snack pretty much all you want, no excess weight gain. :)
