What’s your go-to tool for stimulation right now👇

Mine is dancing to house music 💃🪩

I want to be clear that using food for stimulation is NOT inherently bad. But it can be problematic when it is your ONLY tool for stimulation🏆

Telling an ADHDer not to eat for stimulation is not helpful or practical advice either.

So, here’s some tips that have helped my clients:
-give yourself permission to eat for stimulation
-create a dopamine toolkit, which can include food, so that food is not your only source of stimulation (I help you with this in my program)
-connect with your senses while eating to maximize the dopamine you get from the sensory experience of eating
-add some protein, especially if you’re only eating carbs for stimulation
-get support

In my Intuitive Eating for ADHD Small Group Coaching Program, I help you build a dopamine toolkit and heal your relationship with food so you can stop binge eating 🙌

What’s your go-to way to eat more fiber? 👀

If you feel like carbs are your enemy, this is your reminder that carbs like whole grains, beans, and fruit are excellent sources of fiber. Including these types of carbs in your eating pattern makes it A LOT easier to enough fiber.

A few of my favs: bean salad, apples, berries, and Gutzy fruit squeeze pouches.

You can find fiber in: whole grains, beans/lentils, fruits, vegetables, nuts, and seeds.

Why is fiber so important?
-helps keep you full longer 
-supports more stable energy + focus (less blood sugar rollercoaster) 
-supports digestion 💩 
-can help reduce risk of type 2 diabetes, high cholesterol, and certain cancers

Most adults need around 25–38g of fiber per day. It’s okay if you don’t hit it perfectly to see benefits.

⚠️ Want to eat more fiber? GO SLOW (and please don’t fibermaxx). Adding too much fiber too fast can lead to bloating and discomfort. Start by adding 1 fiber source at a time and build from there (and don’t forget to drink plenty of water 💧).

If you want more ADHD-friendly, low-effort ways to actually eat more fiber (without overthinking it), I break it all down in my book How to Eat Well for Adults with ADHD 📖

Are you skipping breakfast because you don’t have time?

Only to find yourself standing in the pantry binge eating by 4pm. If so ADHDer, you’re not alone.

Not having time and not feeling hungry are reasons my clients skip breakfast all the time. But when you’re stuck in the ADHD binge/restrict cycle, skipping breakfast sets you up to repeat the cycle. And this cycle is EXHAUSTING 😫

This is why giving yourself permission to use shortcuts and convenience foods matters. I keep a few of these on hand for exactly those mornings. This is what I mean when I say work with your ADHD brain.

Raise your hand if you’ve ever said this? 🙋🏼‍♀️

If so, you’re not alone 💜

When you hold yourself to neurotypical expectations about how feeding yourself should look, it’s easy to believe you’re failing at food.

But your needs are valid.

Your brain works differently and that’s okay. You don’t need to measure up to a neurotypical idea of what eating “should” look like to be worthy of support.

These thoughts are signs of internalized ableism, and unlearning them is part of working with your ADHD brain instead of against it.

What’s your go-to crunchy snack? 👇

🥕 + hummus or Honeycrisp 🍎 + gouda 🧀 are my go-to crunchy snacks. What’s yours?

PSA: These are just ideas! If these don’t work for you (allergies, sensory sensitivities, or just personal preference), that’s totally fine. The goal = finding snacks YOU enjoy and that actually satisfy you.

🥕Many ADHDers find crunchy foods stimulating and helpful for eating more regularly.

🥨If you love crunchy carbs (chips, pretzels, crackers), try pairing them with a protein or fat (cheese, hummus, nuts) to keep you full longer.

🍎Adding a crunch factor (like raw veggies, nuts, or seeds) to meals can make eating more satisfying AND because satisfaction is the mental piece of fullness!

Struggling with eating consistently? Feeling stuck in the binge/restrict cycle?

💡 In my Intuitive Eating for ADHD Small Group Coaching Program, you’ll learn how to break the binge/restrict cycle and actually nourish your body in a way that works with your ADHD 🧠No more relying on willpower or feeling guilty about what you eat. Just real, sustainable strategies that help you feel better without the all-or-nothing mindset.

Drop a 💜 if you struggle with recognizing hunger

If you’re thinking, “these hunger cues apply to everyone,” you are correct.

BUT ADHDers are more likely struggle more with noticing when we’re hungry (and full).

Sometimes this looks like feeling hungry 24/7.

For others, this might look like not feeling hungry and suddenly feeling RAVENOUS and needing food ASAP.

3 reasons ADHDers have a harder time recognizing hunger:

1. Interoception differences: ADHD can make it harder to notice body cues like hunger until they become uncomfortable or impossible to ignore. You may find you overeat or binge when you wait until you are ravenous to eat.

2. Stimulant medications can mask hunger: ADHD meds have the potential to reduce appetite or make hunger cues more subtle instead of completely erasing them. Learning to tune into your body (on and off meds) can help you eat more regularly and trust your hunger.

3. Hunger signs can look like ADHD symptoms: Trouble focusing? Feeling hangry (emotionally dysregulated)? Trouble concentrating? Many ADHDers don’t realize these could be hunger, not just ADHD!

🔎 So what can you do? Try eating every 3-4 hours to keep your blood sugar stable and avoid getting ravenous (which can lead to bingeing later). Your ADHD 🧠 needs consistent fuel for executive function!

💡 I dive deeper into why hunger cues are hard to hear with ADHD AND exactly what to do about it in my book How to Eat Well for Adults with ADHD!

Which one did you need to hear the most 👇

If you’re an adult ADHDer, then you might feel A LOT of shame for doing these things. There is NOTHING wrong with doing any of these things. Get curious & explore what makes it easier and less overwhelming to nourish yourself without judgment.

Here’s a few things that ADHDers can let go of guilt/shame about when it comes to food:

1. Eating to stimm: Food can be a part of your toolkit for stimulation.

2. Eating “kids” foods: Just because society labels them as “kids” foods doesn’t mean you can’t eat them. These might be “safe” foods that you can tolerate on meds or if you have sensory sensitivities.

3. Ordering groceries: for pickup or delivery can save you time and energy. This can save spoons (executive function) for food prep and other tasks. Plus, grocery shopping can be a sensory hell.

4. Eating something “bad” instead of not eating at all: There are no “good” or “bad” foods. Sure, some have a better nutrient profile, but these labels often get internalized. All foods have a purpose even the foods that diet culture has demonized. Eating something is better than not eating anything.

5. Body doubling to cook a meal: Support can look like having someone sit in the kitchen with you while you cook (bonus if they want to join in), Face-timing a loved one, or joining a virtual body doubling session so you actually cook the food in your fridge instead of ordering DoorDash again.

In my small group coaching program, I provide you with a judgment-free space to learn how to work with your 🧠 to eat more regularly so you can stop bingeing!

Drop a 💜 if you’ve ever said, “I forgot to eat… and now I can’t stop.”

If you’re stuck in the ADHD binge/restrict cycle 🔁, you are so not alone.

Every time I post about this, I hear:
👉 “Are you spying on me?”
👉 “Okay, this is literally me.”
👉 “Get out of my kitchen!”

But I’m not spying, I just know this cycle because I used to be stuck in it too.

So why do ADHDers get caught in this cycle?
💊Stimulant meds kill your appetite (you can totally get stuck in this cycle without meds)
🎯Hyperfocus = forgetting to eat
🤯Too overwhelmed to decide what to eat
🪫No time or energy to cook
⚖️Dieting (or just trying to “be good” with food)

The result? You don’t eat enough during the day…
Then by 4pm, your brain is in panic mode. Cue the insatiable hunger monster.

Breaking the cycle starts with one thing: eating ENOUGH and REGULARLY.
Not easy for ADHDers, but it is possible (and I’ll teach you how).

For the last 6 years, I’ve helped ADHDers break free from the cycle through my Intuitive Eating for ADHD Small Group Coaching Program — and it actually works.

Inside my small group coaching program, you’ll learn:
✅ ADHD-friendly ways to eat regularly
✅ How to nourish your brain and body without restrictive rules
✅ How to feel in control around food instead of like it controls you

After years of disordered eating, I can honestly say this kind of freedom is life-changing 💜

Enrollment is open for my spring small group 🎉

My heart is so full after last weekend at 🎉

I had so much fun doing my first book signing and second in-person talk 🙌🏼

But I had even more fun reconnecting with friends and making new friends.

There’s something really special about being in a space where it’s safe to unmask and be your authentic self.

Where you’re never “too much” or “too weird” or “too sensitive.”

Where your “quirks” are accepted and even celebrated.

I left last weekend filled with joy, re-energized (even after staying up all night to catch a flight at 6:30am), and inspired.

Hopefully, I remember to take more pics next year 🙃

What’s your go-to way to eat more fiber? 👀

A few of my favs: bean salad, apples, berries, and Gutzy fruit squeeze pouches.

Protein gets a lot of attention when it comes to ADHD and nutrition (because it helps make neurotransmitters like dopamine).

But we can’t forget about fiber because most people (especially ADHDers) aren’t getting enough.

Why is fiber so important? -helps keep you full longer -supports more stable energy + focus (less blood sugar rollercoaster) -supports digestion 💩 -can help reduce risk of type 2 diabetes, high cholesterol, and certain cancers

Most adults need around 25–38g of fiber per day—but you don’t need to hit that perfectly to benefit. Even small increases can help.

⚠️ If you’re trying to eat more fiber, go slowly. Adding too much too fast can lead to bloating and discomfort. Start by adding 1 fiber source at a time and build from there (and don’t forget fluids 💧).

You can find fiber in: whole grains, beans/lentils, fruits, vegetables, nuts, and seeds

Easy snack ideas with fiber: -apple = 4.5g
-3 cups popcorn = 3.5g -dry roasted edamame = 4–8g -Gutzy pouch = 8–9g -Mush cup = 4–8g -1 cup raspberries = 8g -guacamole cup = 4g -1 cup baby carrots = 4g

If you want more ADHD-friendly, low-effort ways to actually eat more fiber (without overthinking it), I break it all down in my book How to Eat Well for Adults with ADHD 📖
