Summer is one of my favourite times of year… but if you have ADHD, it can also make eating feel so much harder.

I know every summer I lose a lot of the structure that helps me stay on track. Before I know it, I’m forgetting to eat, snacking all day, or realizing it’s 3 pm and I still haven’t had lunch. 😅

Without your usual routine, it’s really common to:
• Forget to eat until you’re starving
• Snack all day but never feel satisfied (🙋‍♀️ me)
• Skip meals because you’re busy having fun
• Feel like you’re always trying to catch up with food

If this sounds like you, you’re definitely not the only one.

One thing that really helps me is having 3 food anchors: a go-to breakfast, lunch, and dinner that I can count on most days. They don’t have to be fancy. They just make eating one less thing I have to think about.

And yes, every photo in this post is from my own summer vacation. I wanted to show that even as an ADHD dietitian, my eating isn’t perfect either. I still need simple, realistic strategies that make life easier.

Small changes really do add up. 💙

I had so much fun teaching the Grade 2 students at all about nutrition this week! 🍎🍇🍓🍉🍊🥝

The presentation was highly interactive, with hands-on activities, food examples, and lots of great questions. I loved seeing the students so engaged and excited to learn about healthy eating- and they even got to enjoy a yummy healthy snack! 😋

Thank you for having me- it was a fantastic day! ❤️

✨ New Blog Post Alert! ✨

Ever feel like eating should be simple… but somehow it’s just so hard to follow through — even when you know what to do?

You’re not lazy, and it’s not about willpower.
It’s your ADHD brain — working against a world not built for it.

In my newest blog, I dive into:
🍴 Why meal planning feels so overwhelming
⚡️ Why sugar and snacks feel like the only thing that “works”
💡 How to make food easier (and actually enjoyable) again

If this hits home, you’re not alone — and there is a way to make nutrition work with your brain, not against it.

✨ New Blog Post!
I’ve opened up about a personal part of my ADHD journey — why I chose to start medication, what I’ve learned along the way, and why nutrition still matters just as much.

💊 Medication can be life-changing, but it’s not the right path for everyone. In this blog, I share my story honestly and with the hope it helps others feel less alone.

🍎 As always, food and lifestyle play a big role in brain health — and that’s where I love helping my clients find clarity.

What happens when a dietitian and her three kids are all diagnosed with ADHD? This.

I’ve seen a lot of new faces here lately, so I thought it was the perfect time to reintroduce myself.

I’m Shée Lillejord—a Registered Dietitian with a Bachelor’s Degree in Nutritional Science from the University of Alberta and a completed Dietitian Internship. I’m also a mom of three amazing ADHD kids. A few years ago, we were all diagnosed with ADHD, and it completely changed how I understood food, focus, and self-care.

Now I help other ADHD brains—kids, teens & adults—find simple, realistic ways to eat that boost focus, lift mood, and fuel energy… without guilt, shame, or overwhelming rules.

If you’re curious where to start, check out my new blog post: 10 Common Challenges with Eating and Weight Loss When You Have ADHD —you’ll see you’re not alone, and I share ways to make food work with your brain, not against it.

On this page, you’ll also find:
✨ ADHD-friendly food tips & brain-boosting ideas
✨ Support for parents raising ADHD kids
✨ Real-life strategies that actually fit into busy days
✨ A community that gets how your brain works

If you’re new here, say hi in the comments and tell me your go-to comfort snack—mine (currently- as it often changes) is apple slices with peanut butter.

And don’t forget to follow along so you don’t miss future tips and support.

Xo,
SL

🌿 New on the blog:
“How I Got Off Antidepressants and Started Feeling Like Me Again”

After baby #3, I hit a wall—mom life, business life, ADHD life… it all felt like too much. Antidepressants helped me survive, but eventually, I wanted more than just numbness.

This is my honest story—what helped, what healing looked like (and still looks like), and why food, routines, and self-compassion mattered more than I expected.

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed, disconnected, or like you’re just getting through the day—you’re not alone 💛
