You might find you are not immediately hungry after cardio...exercise raises the body's blood sugar levels and in some this takes away the hungry feeling. Not for long though. Make sure you get in some good complex carbs and protein at least within an hour. When I do cardio only in the morning I'm not immediately hungry -but when I lift in the mornings and then do a bit of cardio watch out!! I'm starving!!

I ALWAYS eat immediately afterwards. I am starving even when I wake up. I can't get the food down fast enough. Especially when I think about going catabolic.
