Intermittant Fasting question

[AZhiker 2,252]

I started back with IF about a month ago, once I felt I could consume enough nutrition in a limited time. I am doing 16/8 or there abouts. It is going just fine with plenty of energy and no hunger at all in the mornings, However, when it is time to eat, I am usually feeling pretty hungry. Even though my Portion Control is OK, I am getting a bit of tummy upset/foamies/slimies with the first meal of the day. I suspect I am eating too quickly. This doesn't happen with other meals. I know I need to slow down, but I wonder if the empty pouch just gets a shock when food enters for the first time each day. Anyone else experiencing this with IF? Do you break your fast with a regular meal, or do you ease into it with something soft like a smoothie?

I used to break it with a non IF approved drink before the meal but not a smoothie or Protein Shake.

There is a huge thread for IF with a lot of participants, search there for a wider range of answers.

I searched for the thread but couldn't find it. I'll keep looking. Thanks.
