Discussion How do you deal with your safe food not being available.

5 Upvotes

At the moment I am really struggling with the idea of my safe food running out.

I know that usually you are able to buy more, but recently something has gone wrong with the supermarkets. I went to the supermarket twice, both times they ran out of two of my safe foods. I am scared that they'll run out of even more safe foods.

At the moment they ran out of this protein bar I always eat, which also does have another flavour so I have opted for that. So that is not an issue.

However, they also ran out of a particular kind of skyr I always eat. It's a specific brand... They do have other flavours but I don't want the other flavours (they scare me).

I know I can just buy another brand, but for me it's not the same.. I base my safe food on nutritional value AND calories. I have AN, so eating in general is always a bit difficult for me.

I would still really like to try.. Skyr is kinda my breakfast.. Like it is literally the MAIN component of my breakfast... I don't know if I am strong enough to try a different kind of breakfast.

If someone has a safe breakfast food (that doesn't involve frying) please let me know. I am nervous that breakfast will be too scary to eat and I really do need it. I am open to some form of sugar, but I do have to say that I struggle a lot with added sugar (especially during breakfast).

But in general, if you have any tips on how to deal with loosing the ability to eat a safe food due to supply, please let me know! Thank you <3

Discussion Safe food anxiety

16 Upvotes

Drizzilicious were one of my top safe foods but I have become hyperfixated on the texture and have anxiety that they are stale/go stale as soon as I open the bag, and it takes me a few weeks to finish them. Has anyone else experienced this anxiety around food?

Does anyone else get anxiety about food texture being slightly different? If something is slightly off to me (even if it realistically isn’t) I can’t relaxed and it gives me a lot of anxiety

The fat in egg yolks is a challenge for me, so I've been trying to eat eggs every day. Lately I've been having this grated carrot and scrambled egg for breakfast. Before that I was having corn and egg scrambled. Salt and/or soy sauce are good.

(And randomly boiled eggs LOL)

Don’t get me wrong, I love these Fibre One bars, but I would love to add just a touch of variety to curb my chocolate cravings. Any suggestions?

I’m located in Australia.

I’ve been loving this simple easy meal lately. It’s half a medium has avocado and one boiled egg cut up, sprinkle a little lime on there with some Asian everything bagel seasoning. Sometimes I like it with romaine lettuce !

And on the side… I know the coloring is weird but it’s a black milk tea with a sprinkle of sugar.

Snacks are usually made up of:
-a yogurt pot/a piece of fruit + a bar of some kind
-a pudding (protein or not)
-a smoothie

I have at least 2 snacks a day (afternoon and evening)
Recently moved out so I had to adapt a bit but I managed to have a few options of snacks
