I don’t like being called out like this…
How do I explain to my doctors that my problem isn’t that I don’t know how to feed myself in a healthy way and I need more dietary advice - but THIS?
You know, this wouldn’t be a problem if you had decided to have the moxy (aka $250,000 in startup capital from your parents) required to make yourself into a self made billionaire. If you’d gone that way, you could afford to hire a private chef by now.
There has to be an ADHD cookbook somewhere, and if there isn’t we need to come together to write one.
Some general helpful things are: airfryers, powdered sauces you just mix with water and boil, frozen ingredients, dry items kept in the pantry (e.g. pasta)
i LOVE dry and frozen stuff because there’s 0 stress to use it before it goes bad, it’ll last months at the very least.
but what if i just ate a whole box of saltine crackers
Hey a cold hotdog is just a bologna stick
You know, soy milk is a beverage that has protein.
Let me spell that out:
- it is a beverage (can be pulled out of the fridge and consumed in a matter of seconds)
- that has protein (can be used to substitute for part of a meal)
There have been days when I got my carbs from apple juice and my protein from soy milk. And also, like, a carrot or two. (Those can also be eaten with peanut butter.)
Do with that what you will.
With all due respect, if you haven’t tried peanut butter at least once with every form of easily-retrievable food found in a fridge (tortilla, rice, carrots, celery, apples), then you have been managing your executive dysfunction waaaaay too effectively. What kind of ADHD meds are you on?
