Yeah my go to is rotisserie chicken, canned corn, and the pre-made refrigerated mashed potatoes.
I gotta start breaking down the chicken and portioning the meals at the start of the week though because even that when I get home at the end of a day is like, damn. I gotta open a can of corn, take about half, take a third or so of potato container, cut or rip the chicken off the bone, put it on a plate microwave it, season it. Like damn.
I really should get over myself and start doing this. I do on occasion when I’m really struggling. But for whatever reason, maybe just mental obstinance, my brain really wants like a main and two sides on a plate with a nice drink. Otherwise it feels like it’s not gonna check the “eaten a meal” box considering I eat mostly out of habit and less from ever actually getting a signal I am hungry.
Between cognitive behavioral therapy and meds, I can work 25 hours a week and still generally keep-up my apartment as long as I’m not in a funk.
I still be eating wwwaaaayyyyy too much fast food though. Don’t even want fast food. At a point it’s kinda mentally gross even if physically very satisfying. Just don’t wanna cook. You’re telling me I gotta cook and then EAT TOO? I have ibs so 90% of frozen and fast-prep options are out. :(
I do think no matter what reforms we do in schools, the subject being the most interesting / stimulating thing currently available must help a lot.
Also wonder if this means people are passing notes around again!
I do think it would probably be reasonable to charge for neglect / abuse depending on circumstance in atleast cases where the child is severely physically disabled from their weight and there is no underlying illness in the child to cause such a desire to eat. Or maybe even further to if there is an underlying illness causing it and they refused to acknowledge such or seek help if acknowledged.
