The things that get in the way for me are: getting instantly bored with any weight loss strategy, an inability to do things if I’m told I have to, forgetting that I need to lose weight, needing the sensory input of food, inability to recognise when I’m full, hyper-focusing on weight loss for a month and losing a ton of weight and then putting it all back on the next month because I celebrated the weight loss with cake…
I just wonder if there are any ADHD behaviour hacks where I could use my neurospicyness to actually help me lose weight consistently.
For me it’s about planning. If I know what’s for dinner I can handle it even if I’m not in the mood for whatever I’ve got planned for dinner. If I’m hungry and then start looking for food I’m far more likely to fail.
