Setting phone reminders to actually eat might help. First step though, prep ahead!! Have meals and snacks ready, otherwise you'll just stand staring into the fridge with nothing sounding good. Can't stress that enough.
On days when food sounds outright unappealing, grab a premade protein shake. Always keep a few stocked in my fridge for exactly that.
