The things that get in the way for me are: getting instantly bored with any weight loss strategy, an inability to do things if I'm told I have to, forgetting that I need to lose weight, needing the sensory input of food, inability to recognise when I'm full, hyper-focusing on weight loss for a month and losing a ton of weight and then putting it all back on the next month because I celebrated the weight loss with cake...

I just wonder if there are any ADHD behaviour hacks where I could use my neurospicyness to actually help me lose weight consistently.

I do omad too and have lost 50 lbs this year and am closing in on my goal weight but have 0 desire to stop omad. I’ll just eat a bigger meal to start maintaining. Nothing really to add other than it’s easy and works.

Honestly I was losing weight crazy fast while eating a huge meal from mcdonalds or burger king twice or thrice a week. The other days I made something filling but with low calorie content (usually fried some frozen veggie mix, chicken fillet and added a bunch of Sriracha to make it less boring - all in all a huge plate of food with around 700-800 kcal)
