My ADHD had me writing a cooking blog intro about how I discovered this but I'll spare you:
The catch-all answer is water. But for ADHDers with oral fixations (both of us, apparently), the real answer is powdered drink mixed.
You'll stop wanting a snack if your 0 calorie drink tastes good.
I didn't buy it for weight loss but my water bottle has electrolyte powder every day. I use half the recommended amount (don't wanna overdose) and it completely replaced food as my go-to when I'm not sure if I'm bored or hungry.
I'd like to try this strategy. Hey Lemmy, is there a "hydro homies" community yet?
