Effects of different foods on glucose w/CGM

Feeling tired after large carb meal at lunch.

Some don’t feel the hit after a sandwich at lunch. Sometimes if I am fasting I get intermittently for consistent days, I can barely keep my eyes open if I sit still. What is going on? I also do t see much of a spike on my CGM. Confusing.
