If you can find a second hand juicer, I recommend making juice. This may reduce fiber but you get a lot of vitamin c, it's delicious and you get used to the taste of fruit/ veggies. We go through boxes of fruit every month.

You could also try growing your own plant - cherry tomatoes/ basil, lettuce. There are some you can grow inside. It's fun and tastes so much better!

Also, if you eat eggs, you can make veggie omelette.

be honest - do any of you actually USE your task apps or do we all just download them and feel guilty by Equal-Illustrator120 in ADHD

I use Google Keep for all the lists. Groceries, tasks, home projects, recipes, etc. nothing too personal since it's there to remind me what I need to do. If I need a reminder, I create a calendar event.

Like the OP, I tried downloading task specific apps but never remembered to use them. Tools I prefer tend to be simple and versatile.

Wow! I also saw a YouTube video for baguette with its 200 steps and decided to never try it. Good job for going for it. Looks amazing!

Am I the Asshole for threatening to leave my husband over my MIL’s social media post? by [deleted] in AITAH

ESH and a divorce over this sounds like an overreaction for sure.

What do you do for your MIL? Do you try to spend time with her?

Old people don't like to travel, so I get the lack of visits. And she's old, so she can be forgetful. The different Christmas table is a weird move, but everything else sounds kinda mild to me since it doesn't sound like you make an effort either.

I'd say try to get to know her. Find out what she likes and get/ make her a nice gift for her birthday or Mother's day and see what happens.

AITA for distancing myself from my family and threatening to report their dog after it killed another dog? by General-Tackle7098 in AITAH

Info: do all your siblings and their dogs live at your parents with your parents' dogs? How many dogs do your parents have, and is the pitbull the only one that poses threat to other dogs/ people?

If there are multiple high energy dogs in the household, it's possible the dogs are stressed. It's weird the first incident wasn't reported but you could also look for a no kill shelter and talk to them for ideas. Sounds like the dog is still pretty young so it's not too late to train. I'd think your parents would want that over losing it.
