  • What should I eat after exercising

    I have increased my exercise and notice that I am more fatigued (in a good way!). Can anyone give me some snack ideas that will give me the boost I need before/after exercise? Right now I am walking and beginning biking. I tried some nuts, but it didn't make much of an impact.

    Thanks in advance!

    If you are in OWL, yogurt with an omega oil and some blueberries is the best post hard workout snack for me, boiled eggs dipped in mayo is a close second. You want something high protein and quick digesting.

      My trainer always advocated a protein shake after weight training.

      HW 298
      HW (this time) 248
      GOAL ONE 228
      (take 2)
      GOAL TWO 213 (personal goal)
      GOAL THREE 199 ONE-DERLAND
      FINAL GOAL 165

      It's not about the results. Its about the process.

          Hey there...I certainly don't know the answer to your question about eating (I'm still learning the ins & outs of Atkins right now). Am I looking at your stats right?? You've lost 30 pounds since March 12th??? That's AMAZING!!!!!!!
