Some people just can't eat much sugar. I was hooked on sugar for 25 years. I loved chocolate, coke, cakes, cookies, breads, and buns. I felt more and more tired. When I ate sugar things, it gave me a boost for a while and then I got tired again and I ate more sugar. When I was finally diagnosed as diabetic I denied that I had a sugar problem and my diabetes got worse. Finally, I decided to stop eating sugar all together (thanks to the Atkins diet) and it was hell for 2 weeks. But, now that I am free from sugar I feel so much better. So, yes, sugar can make you fell great and it can make you fell terrible.
But, your fatigue can be related to many things. If stopping sugar for 2 weeks doesn't help, then its time for a check up to make sure you don't have a medical problem that is easy to fix.
