Sometimes it's just inevitable to eat your ass off. I like to have fresh vegetables and fruit ready and available. You can eat a ton of that and be nice and full without blowing through 2000 calories.

When I get high, I always have a bunch of watery fruit and veggies available. I've eaten entire pineapples before.
You gotta make sure you have nothing but fruits & veggies available. Nothing else but those things.
Fills you up faster, is healthier & doesn't leave you with large shits usually. Unlike a lot of junkfood does.
I have the same problem, I tend to eat a ton of food when I have the munchies. The key for me is to not buy junk, and to only have healthier things in the house for when I get those uncontrollable munchies. Also, increasing my daily fiber intake has done wonders for appetite control and keeping me full throughout the day. Staying active will also help offset any over-eating from munchies, of course.
My job.
Sometimes I plan to eat breakfast and / or lunch but I get into my stride and forget. Coffee and adrenaline usually keeps me going.
I might grab some toast or a quick sandwich during the day but usually my largest meal is dinner and we make sure we eat as healthy as we can.
Big dinners with vegetables and minerals and all that good stuff.
Then we demolish whatever sweet thing is in the house.
Rinse and repeat.
I'm reading this as I eat banana bread over the sink, after smoking a bowl. I commiserate, and I hope to hear good advice too.
I also eat over the sink frequently.
Look for something with a lot of Humulene. Humulene suppresses appetite and can counteract the munchies. I have a live resin cart with a bunch of Humulene that works for me. I also have an occasional customer who is older and will forget to eat if she has too much Humulene.
Thanks for the pro tip. I found my munchies vary a lot depending on the strain, so maybe this is the reason.
I keep the unhealthy junk food to a minimum in the apartment. But more it’s that I don’t get munchies anymore. Now I smoke to ignore hunger (I’m aware that’s bad too lol)
You could prepare healthy snacks before (!) smoking.
some inspiration:
-vegetable sticks with hummus/guacamole
-fruits (frozen grapes are awesome)
-roasted chickpeas
-popcorn (without drenching it in butter)
Veggies and hummus are my go to but also eating before smoking helps
I suck on hard boiled sweets. Fucking beautiful when you're high wow the flavour it amazing
Jolly ranchers are my go to. Not a health food by any means, but they last so long it keeps my calorie consumption way down.
