I Haven’t Smoked Marijuana in 5 Weeks, and Am Still Testing Positive. How Much Longer Until I Should Be Clean?

Question by Stephen J Puente: I haven’t smoked marijuana in 5 weeks, and am still testing positive. How much longer until I should be clean?
Now before I get a barrage of “f***ing pothead!” and “you’re an idiot, that will teach you”, I realize that, yes, I was both of these. I haven’t touched the stuff in 5 weeks and have disassociated myself from friends who still smoke marijuana. I also have deleted both of my weed dealers’ numbers from my phone, as I am dead serious about stopping for good. I should also note that I have never been arrested. I have lived my life by the moral standards the Bible presents, to the best of my ability. I am a straight ‘A’ student at a major university and also volunteer for the United Way. I am not a bad person, I just made bad choices in the past.

The reason I ask my question is that I’ve been working the same dead end job for the past 2 and a half years and would like to start my career before I graduate next Spring(2013). I know every job, in the field of my chosen major, drug tests.

My physical measurements are 6′ 0″, 227 lbs.(a bit overweight but I carry it well, former bodybuilder).

Each person is different. Go to your local smoke shop and ask for a detox product. It’ll clean your system

The half life of THC concentration is about 10 days. There is way too much variation to even approximate how long THC will be detected in the urine of an individual. Infrequent users with a fast metabolism will have the shortest detection time. Frequent or chronic users with a slow metabolism will have the longest detection times. The only way to estimate a detection time is to consider the lower and upper bounds (3-50 days), and estimate based on the factors outlined here.

::

Usage at 1 time only : 5-8 days
Usage at 2-4 times per month : 11-18 days
Usage at 2-4 times per week : 23-35 days
Usage at 5-6 times per week : 33-48 days
Daily Usage : 49-63 days
