Does Feeding Yourself Feel Harder Than It Should?

From forgetting meals to navigating medication-related appetite changes, ADHD can affect your eating habits in ways that go far beyond willpower. Do any of these sound familiar?

​

You hyperfocus on tasks, lose track of time, or miss hunger cues—then find yourself extremely hungry later in the day.

​

​

Medications like Vyvanse or Concerta can reduce appetite, making it difficult to eat enough during the day.

​

​

Grocery shopping, deciding what to cook, and preparing meals can feel overwhelming when every step requires planning and energy.

​

​

You may reach for highly rewarding foods when bored, understimulated, or seeking something pleasurable, even without physical hunger.

​

​

You might have the best intentions to eat regularly, but struggle to maintain routines that work with your changing schedule, appetite, and energy.

HOW I CAN HELP

Personalized ADHD Nutrition Counselling

As a Registered Dietitian specializing in mental health nutrition, I help people with ADHD build consistent eating routines, manage medication related appetite changes, simplify meal planning, and navigate food cravings and weight concerns, without rigid meal plans

Eating Routines

Create flexible meal schedules, reminders, and simple nutrition habits to help you eat regularly—even when you forget meals, hyperfocus, or struggle to recognize hunger cues.

Cravings & Impulsive Eating

Understand how hunger, reward-seeking, emotions, and habits influence your eating, and develop practical strategies to manage cravings and feel more in control around food.

ADHD Medication & Appetite 

Learn practical ways to meet your nutrition needs when medications like Vyvanse or Concerta reduce your appetite, including meal timing, easy-to-eat foods, and nutrient-dense options.

4

Meal Planning & Prep

Reduce decision fatigue with low-effort meal ideas, realistic grocery routines, and ADHD-friendly food systems that make eating easier on busy or low-energy days.
