Question by cheyenne1627: How do I stop gaining weight after quitting meth use?

I used to be a everyday user for about three years. Now, I’ve been clean for an entire year with no relapse. Just picked up and moved…That was easy enough to quit. But, now I think that I have gained about 50 lbs. NOT GOOD!!!:{

it depends on how long you’ve been clean. Once you’ve stopped the meth it is normal for your body to “rebound” because the chemistry was out of whack and is trying to normalize…you will gain weight at first then, depending how your build was before the meth use, you will loose some if not all of the weight. The important thing is to eat healthy foods and exercise!
