Eating after 16:8

So I’m trying this for the first time and not finding it hard at all but couldn’t find the answer to this on the faqs. I’m doing 16-8 I generally have a small snack when my eating window opens then a normal sized meal. (I want to get to omad eventually but not there yet) the thing I’m running into is after I eat my meal I feel really sick and my stomach hurts some days. I don’t think I’m overeating and but I almost feel massively bloated. Anyone have any idea what this could be?

Well it’s possible you have a gut infection if it’s only lasted a few days to a week. Otherwise it’s very possible you’re intolerant/allergic to something you’re eating, bloating and nausea are the most common symptoms. How are your bowel movements doing while you’re having these symptoms? You could always try several small meals in your eating window. If this persists then do consult a doctor.
