Basically I forget to eat because I don't really feel hunger cues. This has led to large amounts of weight loss in a short space of time in the past. After the last quite scary one my parents set up a system where if they realise I'm not eating they remind me and if I'm in the middle of a distracting thing they'll pester me/help me prepare food.
I'm going to uni in two weeks and I have been trying to find resources to help me set up a plan to remember to eat without the parents there to take notice but have thus far found zilch. It's all either about weight loss plans, not what I need, or about stuff like anorexia and how to cope with difficult emotions enough to eat, quite a lot of which is about distraction which is the last thing I need. I can't go to my GP as far as I'm aware as this is pre-emptive and. as far as I can tell, all referrals in the NHS have severity/effect on life criteria which I don't yet meet and would rather avoid meeting. A private consultation with a dietician is also probably not in my budget
Any advice, resources, plans or techniques that work for you. Literally anything welcome, I'm desperate.
