Today I decided to start the day with a swim. I arrived at the pool at 11am. I just don’t get how people do it. Also, if I do any sort of physical activity without having had a full meal that day, I can literally feel myself run out of energy within minutes.
It’s so interesting how people’s bodies differ! I feel 2x better when working out fasted than with food in the last 4 hours or so. Otherwise I feel sluggish or a bit nauseated while running and my stomach will turn with heavy weights.
Maybe you could drink calories, like a sugary liquid, then postpone eating a meal after the run? If you even need it by then, bc the exercise may release enough stored in your body. We are all different - no shame should be attached to that, imho, we just each need to find what works for us individually.
Like I can’t exercise first thing in the morning - I’ll get nauseous most days. But I can for sure exercise in the evening or any other time! Thus… I do that then. It really helps a ton! 😀

I also just exercise in the evening or afternoon! It’s ok that, like you said, our bodies are all different.
I avoid sugary liquids because I’m worried for my teeth.
