I wanna be your lover...
Okay, I've noticed that I seem to eat only in the morning. I eat breakfast, then ~1 -2 hours later, I'm starving. I'm eating lunch 10:30 or so. But that's it for the rest of the day. I'm not hungry or even thinking about it.

Now, I've starting working out again with weights and Tae-bo. And after the workout...guess what...I'm starving. BUT I work out at 8 - 9 pm. :noidea: And eating a full meal at that time of night would seem to counteract all my hard work. Any tips/ideas on how to become more effective working with my hunger schedule?
 

right now, it a deer sausage sammich and milk. And my normal is the meat/eggs/bread plus milk. Rarely cereal.
 
:lol:

wow.... well, thats prolly why you're hungry......you need to eat 6 times a day...


Big Breakfast(healthy)
snack
Medium Lunch
snack
Small Dinner
piece of fruit


And eat before workouts, there for giving you energy to work off any fat and cals during workout

:xeye: :lmao:

But yeah, that's true @ Smoke.....that's pretty much what I do:

Breakfast- a bowl of Special K Cinnamon and Pecan w/1% milk
Snack- a small muffin and fruit
Lunch- it depends; right now, it's a cup of chicken noodle soup and a turkey wrap
Snack- fruit and almonds
Dinner- again, it depends but it usually involves a spinach salad and grilled/sauteed chicken. :lol:

As far as working out, I fell off a bit. :( I'm still tryin to figure out what's best- working out before dinner or after? Mind you, I don't get home until about 6pm. :confused:

Smoke a pack of Newports and drank a six pack of Coors light. That helps you get in shape.
 
Since I work out so early in the AM, I don't eat prior to working out. If I do, it is a slice of toast w/ peanut butter.

The rest of the day, I spread my meals out making sure I never let myself get too hungry. It is then when I'll overeat.

Hey CT, you're on it! If you're doing weights and Tae-bo, that metabolism is in high gear! Just eat some fruit if you feel guilty late at night. Then in the morning, eat something hearty like oatmeal, eggs and turkey sausage (just an idea).
 
I am another person that doesn't usually leave the gym till 10 pm and I am hungry as heck by the time I make it home.

On days that I have night class, I am in there by 5:15 and out by 6:30 (cardio only)

My goal on other days is to be in the gym by 6:30 but a lot of times I end up getting there around 7:45 and leaving about 9:50-10:00 pm. I need a good two hours for working out.
 
fug a gym. I work out between commericals at the crib.

But..yea I do be starve after a workout, but usually after I drink some water I'm straight. Maybe even something very light like a snack.

Does running on concrete affect you guys? Lately I have been running around my sub-division which is about 2.5 miles, and man my ankles don't like that concrete.

Man,
SWAC football did a number on my knees and I won't dare run on concrete :smh:. I stay about five blocks from the National Mall so I may start running out there in the summer. As of now, I am on the elliptical and spin bike.

Everyone keeps telling me to do the elliptical instead of the treadmill. Why is that? I am old skool. Been on the tread for ever, hard to give it up.
