    I have been wanting to do this but I also think my body will just think I haven’t eaten because I haven’t chewed anything, you know what I mean?

      I totally get it, but trust me when I say: that s*** is filling. You know how we forget to eat right? So I started using that (and the appetite suppressant effects of Adderall) to my advantage with intermittent fasting. I’ll drink a shake at noon and won’t be hungry until 3 at the earliest or 5 at the latest.

        Sadly my stimulation seeking has never given me that issue, even Adderall doesn’t really diminish my hunger. I think most of my “hunger” is just my stomach wanting a stim

          Have you ever tried some sort of stimmy food like pepitas? They’re kinda a pain to eat if you’re not used to it. I can do one at a time and don’t have the best success rate of even getting the seed out 😂.

            Pumpkin seeds are sensory hell for me sadly. I usually get by with many beverages - first coffee, 2nd decaf coffee midmorning, decaf diet coke in the afternoon, maybe a lemonade seltzer later. Baby carrots are a good munch for me, cherries. Apple and peanut butter.

      Yep, I’m the same way. An IT person in my life got way into Soylent. I tried it for a while and ended up just eating double because if I don’t have solid food I don’t feel like I ate.
