Drop a if 💜 you struggle with remembering to eat

Two weeks ago, I shared a post about the importance of eating regularly (~3-4 hours) for emotional regulation, energy levels, and breaking the ADHD binge/restrict cycle. I got a few comments saying something along the lines of, “but how do I remember to eat?”

So here are a few strategies I use as a dietitian with ADHD to remember to eat:
🧦 Pair eating with activities I already do, like taking my meds with breakfast or drinking water.

🪟 Look for natural eating windows. I try to look over my schedule the night before or in the morning to find windows of time I can take a break to eat. I also have buffers set up for my calls so I have a chance to grab a snack or go to the 🚽

👀 Keep foods visible & accessible

🍎 I keep ready-to-eat options on hand. This lowers the barrier to eating. If I don’t have to prep something, there’s a greater chance I can pause to eat.

A few others:
⏸️ Practice pausing to ask yourself, “what do I need right now?”

😋 Look for less traditional signs of hunger like a headache, dips in energy, struggling to focus or concentrate (especially if you’ve taken your meds), changes in mood, etc. Hunger is not always a growling stomach.

I’ve been more overwhelmed by *waves hands* (everything?) lately and eating regularly has been the first thing to help.

Here’s why it matters for ADHDers 👇

Inconsistent eating patterns don’t just make you more likely to overeat or binge at night — they also mess with your:
🔋 Energy levels
😌 Ability to regulate emotions
⚙️ Executive function

While emotional dysregulation isn’t in the DSM-5, it’s considered a core part of ADHD. And when your brain isn’t getting steady fuel, you might notice more:
🤬 Irritability
🏃‍♀️ Restlessness
🪫 Fatigue
😰 Anxiety
😫 Feeling panicky or overwhelmed

Right now, 3 things are helping me regulate my emotions:
1️⃣ Eating every 3–4 hours (keeping accessible, nourishing foods on hand).
2️⃣ Spending time with friends.
3️⃣ Getting outside.

If you’re feeling heavy emotions right now, I see you. 💜

And remember — eating for emotional reasons is not a failure. It’s a form of self-care. Your brain is doing its best to meet your basic needs, and food is a valid way to do that.

Drop a 💜 if you can relate

I used to feel broken on days it was hard to feed myself.
Trying to follow food rules that weren’t made for my brain only made my relationship with food worse.

So many ADHDers, myself included, internalize the belief that we’re lazy, undisciplined, or “failing” because we forget to eat, rely on convenience food, or binge at night.
But none of that means you’re doing it wrong.
It means your brain needs different support instead of shame.

I wrote How to Eat Well for Adults with ADHD because I couldn’t find a book that spoke to the real, messy, non-linear experience of feeding yourself with ADHD—without judgment, food rules, or one-size-fits-all advice.

It’s not a diet book.
It’s a realistic, neurodiversity-affirming guide to understanding your needs, unlearning the shame, and building flexible systems that actually work for your brain.

✨ 7,386 copies sold so far—and I’m so grateful to everyone who’s supported my work, shared the book, or told me it made them feel seen. Thank you. 💜
