I've been diagnosed with gastroparesis [1], and reading this gave me the exact same reaction! Almost all of my day is consumed with "what did I eat most recently? when should I eat next? How much? What am I short on for today? Protein? Carbs?" It's mentally exhausting. I'm thankful though that I only have to be concerned with "how much I can eat in a day" and there is no upper threshold. Lately I've been thinking about T1D and similar issues that have a high focus on managing food intake, and I completely empathize with you and everyone else who has to do this.
If anyone reading this struggles with gastroparesis I'd love to chat about diet choices that have worked for me. Contact info in my profile.
