Can Cannabis make you gain weight even if you don't eat on it?

I'm trying to get advice for my friend Jessica. She gained 2 lbs when she walked on the scale this morning and she smoked Cannabis the night before but didn't eat at all while she was on it. So can you gain weight on it even if you don't eat?

She has a medical card and uses it for severe back pain.

i dont think so. not if she didnt grub out. couldve just been water, im sure she was thirsty.

Any weight that you gain/lose up to 5lbs is usually water weight, so the answer is no.

there is no connection or link between gaining weight and smoking cannabis.

So do I!. Maybe she'd like to post the name of her Dr.! You know, as an "informative tool" for those of us who suffer from "back pain" too?.....Some of us can use a couple of pounds.

Cannabis alone does not make you gain weight. However, it can give you the "munchies", which can give you quite intense cravings for food. She probably ate something and then forgot it because she was high.

No it doesn't cause you to gain wait just by smoking it. Been a smoker for 20 some years now and am at my normal weight for my height and age. Uneducated guess is that your friend may be retaining water or she weighed herself after just waking up. Really no idea at why, but it wasn't caused by smoking a joint.

No, it doesn't make you gain weight...if you gain weight it comes from the pot giving you the munchies and you eat everything in sight.
