Latest ND same food/safe food: jacket potatoes cooked in the air fryer. I'll eat them for days/weeks/months until my AuDHD brain decides it's had enough.

One of the reasons I do #sameFoods is to keep my body healthy....I can only afford bulk purchase and things I make at home/have to run around the city, 3-4 times / week minimum to different markets

It's a fine line.... sufficient calories/variation, etc

Cuz if it is always same same same, I become malnourished of particular nutrients

But more varied = more money.

One reason I have been enjoying sufficiently varied and healtyfood is the 400$ extra or so I got by running around to markets during shutdown and after purchasing 200$ worth of meat, 4lb chuck roast and pork shoulder and leg of lamb, 100$of kimchi and 240 of royal bee jelly

Love having a freezer.... And yea, that's like 3 weeks of food....for two

But it's all extra cuz I get 294$/month which I double by getting it all out in 10$increments cuz you get a total of 10 matched dollars for fruit/veggie extra per transaction

But my point is, that in addition to the 580$ I need for my varied same foods I needed the extra 400$...so like 100 extra a month or so...and I also paid ready money for food in certain circumstances....so to have even remotely healthy diet, I need to more than double my EBT budget. We will see what happens when I need to re-up on some of this stuff again....I need red lentils and i could use mung beans.

And then I need brown rice, teff and other stuff that's gonna be 300-400 but it is the staples on which I can make 6 months of same but varied foods....leaving very little room for wiggling around things like sugars (maple or coconut) and almost no prepared foods

Or desserts ...

I will know more after I finagle the 3-400 worth.

It's been fun stretching the funds tho I've enjoyed maybe 10 Geneva cakes (9$/pop.almond flour. nom--nommy..but refined sugar😝)

Brownies, but not made anymore, pies, again, refined sugar, and I have to pre-order if I want gluten free...tho maybe worth it if I get their savory pies.

Anyway...so much has changed as I focus on #gluten free.

The reason I don't mind going more hardcore is cause I'm still getting better daily, closing in on 12 weeks after adoption.

But I'm definitely at a plateau

Working on resilience and recharging cause while I can do this stuff, it still takes a toll that concerns me...and leads me to dread some . mornings or afternoons, or evenings...cuz for Ray, I divide each day into 3 as equal as I can make them portions for his walks/meals

And then I do what I have to in between.

It gets things done, but it saps me. Granted perhaps less...and I'm tightening up praxis so I might not even notice the improvements.because of that too...and cause I have moremplates spinnjng

I'm definitely hoping for more plateaus while I continue to climb

My vocal development obscures things too, cause I will push the envelope, working on indirect production can show flaws in technique and can re calibrate the cerebellum...like zinn zonuoles get a workout focussi far, near, far, etc.

If you are relying on the brain and gut and as little physical effort as possible, your brain is doing massive mental and physical redecoration to help you meet the standard you hear in your head

The resulting tone is mystical

Anyway...just some thoughts on survival in this anti-art world

When I eat strawberries and grapes, my body screams at me:

"Yes, finally! This is what I've been trying to tell you to feed me! Why don't you ever listen to me?"

Same bench I sat on last time I got a donut. Same donut too. Happy Hot Two-Spirit Tuesday wherever you are.

One of the kids ate all the fruit and yogurt. Probably smoothies. Good for them, but....that's what I was eating for breakfast and bag lunches.

This is exactly why I do #samefoods! To avoid decisions and surprises!

Me walking to the register in the store, carrying more than I can hold because I forgot a basket, buying four boxes of the same exact valentine brownies, valentine dinosaur window clings & other things while also wearing a dinos in space themed tee & Valentine dinosaur eyeglass toppers....

"Why *hello* fellow 'neurotypicals' nothing to see here, just picking up a few groceries....running errands as they say"

*Insert fellow kids gif with Steve Bushemi*
