A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    • 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    • 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    • 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

The fact that some humans can shove an entire large pizza inside themselves is both amazing and terrifying (lemmy.world)

I've been on Adderall since I was 9 and my relationship with food is basically waking up hungry, taking some pills, and then being hungry but having absolutely no impetus to act on it... And 12 hours after waking up everything wears off and it's suddenly 'food horny' for lack of better word. Profoundly, ravenously hungry.

I've basically been training my whole life to saunter into a pizza place and order a 16" pizza and eat the whole thing in 15 minutes.

Professional competitive eaters are nuts tho, this pizza place near me has a challenge to eat a 16" specialty pizza, I did it for shits and giggles after work one day in like 20 minutes, but on their wall of finishers, a professional eater stopped in and ate the whole damn thing in 2 minutes and 49 seconds, that's terrifying

Imagine a dude that has never been on ADHD meds suddenly being given some.

I lost 10kgs already. Still looking to lose 10 more. Like you said - eat pills, stop being hungry / stop the feeling of wanting to eat. Then eat one meal, and be alright till very late in the night.

I eat like shit - burgers, pizza, potato chips, gummies. I am able to limit calories and not feel like shit for most of my day. It's amazing.
