Marijuana Use After Surgery



Recommended Posts

lmao!!!!!!!!!!! a prison jump suit for smoking weed?????????? lmao!!!!!!!!! where r u from and with that being said u obviously have no idea about prison...talk about what u know...don't make a complete ass out of urself!!!!!!!!!

Keep telling yourself that.

A few states—including Mississippi, Montana, Nevada, Oklahoma, and Texas—do, in fact, allow judges to impose a life sentence even for a first pot offense.

Many states have minimum sentences of 3 months to 1 year for simple possession. New York slaps you on the wrist for possession of less than 1 oz on the first two offenses. On the third offense you get 5 days and a fine. Give a friend one of your tokes and you'll get 3 months. Sell it to them and you'll get a year. Getting caught with drug paraphernalia containing traces of pot will get you a year. Other states have similar laws.

Bottom line...you are breaking the law and there is always a very real possibility of jail time. Only a fool would believe otherwise.

Everything we do carries a consequence. If you think that getting arrested, being fined and/or going to jail and having a record for drug possession is an acceptable consequence if you get caught, then I certainly can understand your reasoning. If you are still lucky enough to work in a job that doesn't require random drug screening, and termination of employment should you ever show up positive, then I can certainly understand your reasoning.

You state that Marijuana is illegal.. in What state are you in?

I don't know of any state where marijuana is legal for recreational use? Do you?

Have you done your studies on it?

Yes.

I really feel before anyone goes off saying that Marijuana is an "illegal drug or is a bad drug"

DO YOUR RESEARCH. ITS AN HERB NATURALLY GROWN

IT IS NOT CHEMICALLY BASED

There are many 'natural' plants that are toxic. Just because it's natural, it doesn't mean it's good for you. However, I'm not making the claim that marijuana is toxic. I'm merely stating that it is illegal.

marijuana was the ONLY THING that helped him eat. Because of "WEED" he survived THE CANCER for 5 years

And some states have legalized marijuana for medical purposes. What most are talking about here is the illegal recreational use.

ElfiePoo-I don't know of any state where marijuana is legal for recreational use? Do you?

Recreational use- NO..

BUT!! (AND ITS A BIG BUTT)

In CALIFORNIA try looking up MENDOCINO COUNTY AND HUMBOLDT = you can grow 10 plants on your property..we are NOTORIOUS FOR OUR GREEN BUD THERE.

ElfiePoo

EXACTLY!! THEY LEGALIZED IT BECAUSE DOCTORS AND SCIENTIST RECOGNIZE IT.

FUnny how also how our President OBAMA stopped the FEDS from going any further in "busting out cannabis clubs" the war on WEED isn't such a WAR anymore.

Also in Cali- they are TAXING it.. meaning.. we are soo close to having this LEGALIZED..pretty soon THIS WILL NO LONGER BE AN ISSUE..

Like I said... Welcome to the Future.. Open your minds.. there are WORSE THINGS out there than "Weed"..:thumbup:

Ellfiepoo If you don't mind I ask..

What kind of Studies HAVE YOU DONE ON IT?

Google look-up doesn't count.. J/k

I've had MANY PERSONAL EXPERIENCES with it.. MY BROTHER, FAMILY, FRIENDS,.. RECREATIONAL, OR MEDICINAL... i've done my studies.. My GOOD FRIEND is a graduate from "Marijuana School"

whats your back up?

Theres also a college out here for it.. called

OAKSTERDAM specifically for starting your own cannabis club, and growing.

Why do you think these schools are getting popular?

Why are there sooo many students going?

I don't mind at all. I am a psychiatrist and work as an adjunct with law enforcement at a maximum security prison. I have not *done* any studies, but have read the work of other experts who have done research.

There is no correlation between 'popularity' and safe use. :thumbup: Again, let me reiterate that I don't have a prejudice against marijuana. My belief is that we either make it legal...or make cigarettes and alcohol illegal. Let's at least be consistent.

In any case, it torques me that it is taking so long to get marijuana approved nationwide for medical purposes. The research is there to back up its efficacy for a number of medical problems...not the least being pain relief and without the addictive qualities of so many other pain relievers.

Last time I checked, the guards weren't bringing the marijuana in to the facility in their lungs or bladders and then exhaling or peeing on the prisoners. Therefore, it stands to reason that 'carrying' the marijuana in would not compromise their drug testing.

I'm beginning to think you're either operating under the influence (judgment impaired by marijuana) or I'm dealing with a youngster (judgment impaired by brain not being fully developed yet). In either case, I need to move on to more important matters.

I smoke marijuana probably more than anyone else on this board (to be honest every single day) and I'm doing GREAT on my journey. it's all about WILLPOWER! Weed doesn't make you gain or loose weight, YOU DO. Don't insult people because they smoke weed. I don't insult people on here because they smoke cigarettes or drink alcohol. That's their choice.

What does this have to do with the conversation at hand? Now I have to ask myself why someone who supposedly lost 139 lbs is resorting to bullying behavior and attacking someone else about their weight? You know what you just did is a defense mechanism for an insecure personality?

Goodbye Flyguys...life is too short to waste on nasty people.

I read an article that reported the results of a survey that asked 'would you rather lose a limb or be fat' and the answer was ' lose a limb'.

One of the fears I've had about losing this weight is that I will become a mean, self-righteous, vain person who will forget that beauty comes from within...not the digital readout on the bathroom scale.

If the choice is between being a nasty, self-righteous vain person and fat...I'll take fat because there are worse things than being fat.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
