First of all yes I know just having carbs is not great, especially for IF, but yesterday in the eating window of my 20:4 all I had was a frozen pizza.
I had been craving it during the fast and I allow myself a little bit of junk some days-- I usually eat a lot of vegetables, fish, and cheese.
In the evening I felt like I was starving and craving food worse than ever before and it was so hard to not give in.
Woke up this morning with a massive migraine, and it feels different from my usual migraines as well. I feel like I have like 20 hangovers.
I looked it up and intense hunger can trigger migraines in people and what are called "hunger headaches" which I didn't have a problem with until now. Now I have to have it for 3 more hours until I can eat again! Nooo
Never just having carbs in my eating window again lol. ðŸ˜
Answer
After eating clean whole foods for a certain period of time, every cheat day i am too reminded of why i eat healthy. Body really notices the changes and it does not appreciate being given nothing but junk.
Still, though, can’t deny junk food is delicious, but gotta have it with a balance.
