Funny this IF got brought up again. This morning I woke up really unusually early and I *so* didn't want to eat 4 hrs before my usual breakfast. And then, I just completely forgot to eat until noon.
Obviously I didn't get hungry. Nor feel dizzy from low blood sugar. Actually my morning blood sugar tends to read higher than my post-prandial (breakfast) reading.
Instead, like I wrote about my 2-day Fast-till 5 stint, my hands turned icy cold and I was even shivering so much that I got goose bumps from it almost to the extent of teeth shattering.. it was quite funny actually to see it happen again.
About 45 min after my meal, fingers were toasty & warm again.
This strange post-meal thermogenic effect never used to be happening way back when I was much fatter. I'm sure the real effect must be smaller, but it feels like something huge.
Same when I eat a very large meal close to bed time, esp when it has carbs.. I can be nearly literally floating out of bed from excess sweating. Please don't tell this is menopausal?
