Intermittent fasting(16/8) was the start of what seem to be blood sugar related issues for me. Ever since I tried it, I get insanely tired after a meal. I had bouts of hypoglycemia as a kid, but that resolved until after trying IF. Now my blood sugar regulation seems wonky. My fatigue is worse since then as well. I've checked my glucose levels when the fatigue hits and they're fine(<120mg/dL). IF didn't have an effect on my weight either.

Same, on almost all counts. Two things helped: add a 1-2 hr (moderately intense, definitely sweating) bike ride at end of fast time, shower, cook, eat SLOWLY. Like slowly enough you could carry on a phone conversation without being rude. Heck, try a phone call quite literally, it’s not like we’re going to HHs nowadays!

Limit your fasting coffee intake as well or part of it could be caffeine/sleep crash.
