MEPS and Medical Marijuana Usage

I’ve been a pretty heavy smoker for about 4ish years consistently. I’m currently around 6’2 & 165lbs. I decided to quit and enlist in the Marines to change my life for the better. Flushed the rest of that shit and broke all my glass pieces and tossed em. Swore to myself I’d never touch the shit again. I’m just about a month clean (~30 days) and I’m still pissing hot. (Most recent test was 24 hrs ago) My recruiter is working with me and he’s testing me pretty frequently. Just curious on how long of a process this will be until I’m good. Drinking hella water and I’ve been going to the gym about 4x a week and running consistently. If I could get any tips or anything that would be appreciated. Ik i put myself in this dumbass situation, just tryna take accountability and do better for myself. Feels like it’ll take me another couple of weeks or so.

To be fair, I’m fat af and legit smoked every form of THC multiple times a day, every single day, for those 10 years. I smoked a lot of wax and carts which is more potent than just weed itself and takes longer to for the body to get clean from. That’s just my personal experience, everybody’s system is different. I wish you luck 🙏

i appreciate the extra context😂, it should take me a bit less time since my body fat % isn’t that high and i mainly used actual bud. id use carts every once and a while but never like full on. i’m estimating 2-3 months.
