The people I know that are on snap are gargantuan, so maybe they're not doing it right?

The effects of breakfast on insulin sensitivity have also been studied and it would seem especially for diabetics like me eating breakfast is a viable choice to control insulin sensitivity for the rest of the day
This is a perfect example of times when IF may not be the correct choice. Although, the "I" does offer even a special case such as yours some latitude if you thought it was something you could really benefit from.
