My oh is sleeping (works night's, it's valid that he sleeps) and I have a 'd before he wakes' to do list that I can't forcusnon cos my brain hasn't yet recovered from its sleep state. I also have nappies and teeth to brush and remember and mouth to feed.
Does anyone else finding eating breakfast to be an odious task? I feed my boy's but never have any interest in feeding myself. My oh things it's weird that I forget to eat often but it's just part of my brain- i never focus on food unlessI have too. And I normally get full on the smells of other people's foods.

Interesting question. Yes, I do, is the short answer! I have a busy day today, so I don't have time to post much now, but can I be cheeky and ask how much you weigh and how tall you are, are you taking ADHD meds, and did they make any difference to your appetite? (I'm 5ft 2" and 12 1/2st, and meds have stopped me getting the munchies so much, but I don't know if they'd've altered my 'morning hungriness' time or not, as I have to eat with my tablets or they give me reflux.)

I'm 5ft 4in, weight about 18 stone (I'm trying to loose weight but struggling). I don't take any adhd meds as I'm undiagnoised officially. Wouldnt take any if i was anyway for personal reasons (ivenothing against those that do mind). II'm very irratic and impulsive when it comes to eating. Some times all I want is a bowl of steamed veggies and other times I'll cook for hours and eat nothing. Then I'll Some times munch on sweets or fruits. I love milk but I can be so focused on one task I forget to eat or drink for ages and then it'll hit me all at once when I'm too tired for more then something quick like a wrap it sandwich. I think part of why I've pooout weight on is cos of my irratic eating habits. I'm trying to do better but I have so man y things to do that it s just not on my priority list

Me too. . re eating. . . I can't eat breakfast until I've been awake at least a couple of hours. . and then I generally forget. . or realise that I'm hungry, go to the kitchen thinking 'put some bread in the toaster' put the kettle on, make coffee and go back to what I was doing. . .no toast. . . I'm also quite a fussy eater, which gets worse the more hungry I get. . .and I sometimes forget to eat until I'm feeling sick. . . then 'what' I eat becomes more important. . and I can't decide. . .I know what I can't face eating. . just not what I want. . I can also spend hours cooking and baking, then when it's done. . .I don't feel like eating it. . .and I'll have a sandwich. . . Life would be so much easier if I didn't have to eat at all.
