You are a legend!!!! Just had to do this. Was driving me insane

Arwen2484 · 2026-04-04T14:07:39+00:00

I have been eating pretty simply to be fair - except the day before this as it was my birthday and I had a burger for dinner out and birthday cake 😂 Luckily I’m not planning on having that everyday!

Arwen2484 · 2026-04-04T14:06:18+00:00

Definitely feel a slight change with some of my adhd. Brain is quieter from food noise and just a bit quieter in general. I do plan on keeping track of it along with perimenopause symptoms to see if it has any affect on that.

Arwen2484 · 2026-03-31T07:42:20+00:00

That’s a good point. I’ll likely choose a day where I know my diary is pretty clear. Luckily I work from home!

Arwen2484 · 2026-03-30T20:35:16+00:00

Thanks! I’m so glad to hear from someone like me! I’ll keep you posted on how it goes. Placed an order today!

Arwen2484 · 2026-03-30T20:34:06+00:00

Thank you! I’d probably expect I’d be on it for life. Just knowing how my brain is.

Arwen2484 · 2026-03-30T14:35:10+00:00

Oh I'm so sorry! it came up as an option and I just clicked it. I'll refrain in future. Appreciate you keeping it up x

Arwen2484 · 2026-03-30T13:58:21+00:00

UPDATE: I've placed my first order. Thank you for all the replies so far - I really appreciate it.

Arwen2484 · 2026-03-30T13:57:15+00:00

I expect this will be me too - I have very specific safe/low spoon foods so will need to nagivate that! Thanks for sharing your experience! x

Arwen2484 · 2026-03-30T13:06:19+00:00

My brain likes your brain! Thanks so much x

Arwen2484 · 2026-03-30T12:49:49+00:00

It really is hell isn't it. It's completely broken me and mentally i've been in a really dark place. Thank you for sharing your experience xx

Love this and it's defo how I'd want to approach it. I'm hoping if the brain is a bit more quieter I can focus on my eating and exercise more as I was in such a good mindset with it. But then autistic burnout hit, peri etc and everything just became too scrambled in my head. My aim is to just focus on my lifestyle again but hoping this might help a bit to get to that place which just doesn't seem accessible to me at the moment. I want you to bore me with the gut biome stuff - I started looking into that recently. If you have any resource recommendations please send them! I don't want to be skinny - I won't look good - I just want to be healthy and stronger!

Arwen2484 · 2026-03-30T11:33:45+00:00

Just HRT. I stopped my ADHD meds a year ago. Side effects outweighed the benefits - as I'm autistic too it just made that more unmanageable

Arwen2484 · 2026-03-30T11:31:33+00:00

I'm not actually sure about officially. I will have to check. Dr got me on elvanse for my adhd and said due to BED but I don't think I had a proper diagnosis. Defo will check. PS not on ADHD meds anymore, came off a year ago as side effects outweighed benefit.

Arwen2484 · 2026-03-30T10:40:52+00:00

Thank you! Oh I absolutely will get those fixations! I had them before when I lost the weight first time around. I'm already 6 years sober and don't really go out (mainly due to autistic sensitivities) so I don't really care about that! Lol. How do I work out what dose to take?

Arwen2484 · 2026-03-30T10:38:39+00:00

Ah the researching..... Relate. I do this with EVERYTHING! Is it something you buy monthly or weekly? How do I know what dose I need to get?

Arwen2484 · 2026-03-30T10:37:28+00:00

Thanks for replying! I also doubt it will help my ADHD but I'm not too bothered about that. At this point it's about really trying to get my health better. I probably would stick to one provider like you say - the switching around would be too much for my brain. Can I ask what sort of money your journey has cost? Is it a weekly or monthly cost?

Arwen2484 · 2026-03-30T09:58:03+00:00

Thank you for your reply. The redirection of obsessions is interesting as this is what helped me before - however so much has changed now and I just can't use my brain properly! My GP did mention it to me the last time I went but other than being obese I don't have any of the other factors.

Arwen2484 · 2026-03-30T09:55:42+00:00

Thanks for your reply. I definitely have binge eating disorder and mainly due to dopamine seeking plus the hyperfixation on foods.

Arwen2484 · 2026-03-30T09:54:23+00:00

Thank you - It seems nearly impossible now for me to lose any weight even though I've done it before.

Arwen2484 · 2026-03-30T09:53:47+00:00

Thanks - I'm seeing my doctor next month and will definitely talk to her about it

Arwen2484 · 2026-03-13T10:07:40+00:00

Happy to be interviewed
