ELI5: If THC makes you hungry every time you smoke, why does Phentermine, which does the opposite of THC, lessen its effects over time?

Actually THC doesn’t make you hungry.

The munchies feeling you get after smoking weed is your brain not knowing how to tell you it wants more THC.

If you have a tiny bit more weed your hunger pains go away.

I know several people that have used weed to manage their weight. It takes discipline to fight the munchies and just have a tiny bit more weed.

I’m not sure what phentermine is.
