How Long Does Marijuana Stay In Our System After Quitting It?

I stopped smoking marijuana one week ago. I am a recent gastric bypass patient (4mo post-op) will my rapid weightloss(~5lbs wk) make me test positive for a longer period of time or a shorter period of time? and about how long before I am finally completely clean?

Hello
Welcome to HCM.
I understand your concerns.
No one can really say how long you will test positive for marijuana, since the rate of THC metabolism varies per individual. The amount of marijuana consumed can also alter the period of time that your body retains traces of THC. Usually it takes 1-3days to leave the system.
Hope this helps you.
Thanks.
