#content warning for ummm :3 hmmm just me rambling lol #and talking about food #and talking about autism! #and talking about being hungry #i had a sandwich before bed last night and while I was eating it I realized that #it was the first time in a *long* time I was going to go to bed without being hungry :/ my executive dysfunction makes it so hard to #prepare food (even no-prep food like a peice of bread or a dry bowl of cereal or anything) and so #I normally eat breakfast and then I try to eat something for dinner around 7-8 when I get settled after work #but I’m always hungry again by bedtime; but I’m always like ‘eh I can wait until morning to eat’ and that’s just been my coping strategy for #a long time now. but now that deviated from that I’m realizing that uhhh that’s probably not healthy!! #I guess in the back of my head there’s a little voice saying ‘you shouldn’t eat before bed anyways; that’s what the diet magazines say’ #and im realizing that once again diet culture has permeated my brain despite my best efforts to ignore it #it’s in my head just because I perceive magazines while waiting to check out at the grocery store #and anyways I’ve decided that uhhhh if humans werent suppose to eat before bed then we wouldn’t get hungry at that time of day 🤷 #I’ve been keeping some snack foods on my nightstand so I’ll just try to remember to eat more in the evenings after work #sorenhoots
