Hey guys !!!

So they ordered a thc test for may
I’m a light smoker maybe 1-2 a week if that. I haven’t smoked in about two weeks. And even then it was a few puffs that’s it.

How long should it take for me to clean out my system from thc ?

Oh wow a month for that ?? That’s so crazy well I would smoke hookah. But it wouldn’t be consistent every other day. I actually quit in December and smoked on and off. I’m going to get some strips !

I don't smoke but I heard it takes about a month to clear your system.

Ive read that THC actually binds to fat, so the heavier you are the more time it may need to clear from your system. you should be fine- if you continue to abstain til May. But I would advocate for being honest with your doctors regardless, they have your best interests in mind. (I dont smoke, but my son does and we had to do this research for his sleep study). We got him set for testing on time, but shared the information with doctors so they were aware.

It depends on how regularly you smoke, how much you smoke and for how long. It's also true it lives in fat cells so the more fat you have on your body, the longer it will take. IF your surgeon's office will drug test, you need to stop ASAP, drink lots of fluids, and get a stack of over the counter tests to find out if you're still popping positive in a couple weeks.

I also smoke THC and I stopped this month and my surgery set for June.Do you think I’ll be cleared by the end of June?

Start trying to clear it out now. You should be OK but just make sure you're drinking lots of fluids to flush it out

I was good after a month. You can get tests on-line or even in the store if that would make you feel better. I used to smoke cigarettes and things with thc in them. I got both of the tests for cigarettes and thc. Best of luck on your journey ❤️🙂

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
