Is it better or worse if the shaking goes away in 10 or 15 minutes without eating?

Just wait a little longer for the nausea to hit. Then you won't wanna eat.
That's where I'm at right now, some of the light headedness is slipping in, but I've ordered food so I can nibble on that soon.
Holy shit do I have ADHD?
You could just be hyperglycemic 🤷🏻♂️
Huh. Possible. I typically fast every day until around dinner time, and I eat once a day or sometimes two.
Yeah, sounds like a good Sunday affternoon
I wish I found this relatable, I struggle to limit my eating
I also struggle to limit my eating unless I get focused in on something like a good video game where I all of a sudden come to my realization 10 hours later that I am so hungry I feel sick.
If I am only mildly engaged or bored or anxious, then I eat, everything
But I have found some anecdotes about Keto being good for people with ADHD, in the past I was the leanest when I was doing it, so I am giving it a try again to see if it helps.
I'm either binging or restricting. There is no "healthy food intake" season of my life yet. Getting there! Going from a stimulant to clonidine has actually helped a ton
That's where I'm at, food is where the dopamine is.
Funnily enough this seems to be worse for me now that I’m medicated. I used to eat when I couldn’t focus on work or when I was frustrated in general. Now I actually have the energy to do stuff again and I forget to eat way more easily. The meds also reduce my appetite which isn’t helping.

The shaking is just extra calorie loss. More workout tips same time tomorrow
I just feel my stomach turn into a knot and I double over, that's how I know that I'm hungry
I often do a mental check before bed to make sure I ate something that day.. sometimes I haven’t, and I debate going back downstairs to make something, because if I do go make something I often won’t eat it..
