Taz,

Gatorade was designed for pro football players and is as good as anything out there for your purposes. If you can't stand the taste of salt, cut it to 50% with water. Then keep sipping all day long!

As far as marijuana goes... the phenomenon is known as "the munchies." It is well documented. Now I am a ski patrolman and, as such, would not advocate your breaking any laws. But I think you must consider, why your doctor has told you the following:

“I wish weed was medically legal. It is the best thing I have seen for appetite loss in the studies they do for cancer patients. It has such a bad stigma to it. It could be so helpful for chemo patients. Boy if I could prescribe that, it would save a lot of trouble the patients have.”

I believe your physician was making a suggestion here. I believe he was advocating certain steps that might make your efforts to gain and maintain weight a lot easier. You might want to consider this seriously.
