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.

    I’ll back this up. That’s what started my weight loss journey. I felt like crap after having eaten way too much on Christmas. I stumbled upon a conduit called Eat Stop Eat, which is basically a 24 hour water fast. It’s a lot easier to get into than a longer fast, since if you’ve just eaten lunch, you only have to wait until lunch the next day.
