After I ate the cake, I felt really sleepy.

The correct statement is that "After I ate the cake, I felt really sleepy." The use of the comma in the sentence will separate two clauses. The other choices are incorrect since the use of punctuation marks do not fit in the sentence and the best option is using the comma.
