I feel this is a very specific thing im dealing with rn but I figure someone one here will be able to understand and maybe give advice?

I'm currently on a calorie deficit and I bring my breakfast, lunch, and a snack to work. problem is, there is constantly sweets/snacks that I'm really struggling to resist. I try eating filling lunches and breakfasts but I want the sweets, the hot chips, I swear its like someone else driving my body whilst I grab the sweet bread my boss brings🥲

my stomach always ends up hurting too b/c I've mostly cut out sugars, breads, and anything processed outside of work (or the occasional dinner out).

how do I fight the impulse? I basically do nothing all day so I have nothing to hyper focus on to ignore the craving. I can't avoid the kitchen bc I keep my lunch in the fridge, and I have to keep it organized as part of my duties.

office workers, how do you do it?? I can't quit bc it makes great, reliable money, but I'd like to see my abs at least once before the summer is over😭

(I'm not currently medicated, got a new insurance and I'm dragging my feet to contact the psychiatrist my primary recommended, ellohell)

I've seen a lot of people w/ adhd tend to have a nail biting habit, which I used to have really bad, and I've been able to stop bitting the entire nail off.

however!! now I have a habit of biting loose cuticle skin or picking at the sides of my fingers until there is something to bite at!! I also have a strange habit of nibbling the very sides of my nails only, which makes them weak. basically I have a compulsion to nibble my fingers and idk how to make it stop!! i've tried having bitter tasting stuff on my fingers and having them painted but it really feels like a compulsion atp so idk what other tricks to keep my fingers out of my mouth :/ anyone relate or have advice??
