I’ve tried a lot of diets, and I have a lot of trouble committing and maintaining structure. I eat out every day. I don’t exercise much. I’m having trouble with willpower fasting. Still I think the most “ADHD friendly” way of dieting is likely fasting. It requires little practical restructuring of ones life, just commitment and willpower. Do you all have anything better? Any advice?
I drink a lot of Soylent, 3 bottles on a typical day. I will usually have a solid meal for dinner and a solid breakfast or snack. Before this I used to eat pretty terribly. When I got my first desk job I was eating half of a pizza every day for lunch. I just didn’t have the mental energy to commit to making myself good meals each day.
When I travel I always bring enough Soylent powder to give me at least breakfast and lunch each day. I actually enjoy trying new foods and I will eat pretty much anything that’s a vegetable or grain. But when I’m traveling I’m usually meeting new people or working or at a convention. I frequently don’t have the energy to research new restaurants around me.
