after the gym.....

[Candy]

All winter long I've been weight training and I've gained alot of muscle..... however now I want to lose some fat but try to keep most of the muscle. I did not know that it was a myth to not eat before you went to bed. I always heard that you should never eat anything after seven or it would be stored as fat - well I stay at the gym late, and Im so hungry I cant sleep!
Thanks guys now I wont feel guilty to just eat a little something healthy so I can sleep.
I did not know it was critical to eat after I workout.

i know its stupid. I can't help it - I have food issues. i'm afraid I'll explode into a big FAT blob.

Post workout is actually one of the best times to get in the calories WITHOUT them turning to fat, your metabolism is racing and your muscles are screaming for the protein and carbs they need to recover!

Put it this way, try it for a few weeks and see how it feels, whats the worst that can happen?

I think u should definately eat after the gym even if its late.

I eat every 2 hours so my last meal is usually late anyways.

For example i just had about 8 egg whites scrambled. Left just one yellow and threw about 1/4 pound of honey turkey in the middle...
