What's up buddy. I know we've never really seen eye to eye, except for brief moments, but I think deep down we both know we have far more in common with each other than not, especially when compared to the general population of EF.

Anyway, you've mentioned you like to blaze, but that it has gotten in the way of things that were important to you at one time (like working out).

Have you tried using weed as a reinforced to things that are beneficial to you? I will use weed as a motivation to run when I otherwise wouldn't, or lift or diet properly when I'd probably slack. Same with work. I'll tell myself if I hit a milestone at work, or stay until a certain time, I'll reward myself with a bowl, or a new purchase of some fresh green, etc. Have you ever tried a strategy like that?

sounds like it can work, if you work it. but i have lacked discipline for such things in the past. although, yes, if i wanted to go for a run when i came home from work (for example), i would almost certainly do that before blazing.

i really wish i could fit it in, but thus far it's always been a matter of the munchies. i have not been able to stop myself from chowing down like smurfy at a hot dog eating contest. i'm sure i could do it if i kept myself busy with other things, and on the move, etc. this girl i'm going to see later this week also smokes, so maybe i can use spending time with her as a reason to not eat crap.

but i've always been a lazy, depressive, isolated dude by nature, even without weed. when you're sitting on your couch and vegging out, adding weed means only one thing: munchies. it just fits so well.

smoking weed never really hampered the workouts themselves, but primarily my desire to lean out (eating 5000 calories of junk at a sitting is not good for abs? go figure...). of course, when it comes to running, smoking like i do won't help. yes, i've considered vaporizing. i actually have one, but either it's shitty and don't do much (Vapir One by Air-2) or i didn't use it properly.

i hope i don't have to bulk and put on more fat before i can cut and show some less-than-pathetic muscle. i want abs now, fuck-it-all, even though i'm too skinny to look all that good with 'em. but even if i'm not bulking at all and just trying to lean out (harder with a lower metabolism due to loss of muscle), i'm not sure what i need to do to get there. if only it were as simple as starving myself or doing lots of morning cardio.

holy cunts of fire, this is a long post.
