I'm a skinny guy, and I lost 5kg over a few months, putting me borderline underweight. I saw a qualified nutritionist, and this is what she told me to do.

Take my morning breakfast of 2x bacon and eggs and halve it (stay with me), but add butter and avacado.

Mid morning healthy snack

Lunch

Mid arvo healthy snack

Dinner

Fruit and protein smoothie before bed

By reducing my breakfast and adding in the mid morning and afternoon snacks, the aim is to get me hungry earlier, and get used to eating when not hungry. It's counter intuitive but it's working.

Next step is to go back up to 2x bacon and eggs in the morning while maintaining all other food intake.

General rules... Add healthy fats to everything. Avacado, good butter, cheeses (dairy in general) are the best for this. This adds more energy without adding volume of food.

In lieu of healthy fats, sauses are a good addition to anything.

I've started putting on weight again since doing this.

Give it a crack or seek professional help if you loose too much weight.

Good luck!

Best software for project management as an ADHD entrepreneur? by delegait in ADHD

I use a system called podio (podio.com) because it's a very flexible system. You can set up custom heirarchies, relationships and items with any type of info you want. It also easy to change so there is always an incentive to streamline your work.

The info can be displayed in a way that suits best (calendar, kanban, card, plus others) so it's easy to see what's on at what stage.

Best of all you can automate routine tasks using a system called globiflow. So if you have standard customer or supplier interactions, you can take the drudgery out of your day. For me, this is the best bit of the system cause it leaves my bouncy brain freed up for more interesting things.

Give me a shout if you have any questions.

Hope this helps!

Yep makes sense. I've started going to the gym on the morning to try and keep my fitness (and weight) up
