Answer 1

A protein bar along with a healthy drink before going to the gym always seems to satisfy my hunger. Also I drink 20 oz. of water while exercising to keep me hydrated. After the gym, try a healthy salad with fruit and cottage cheese. Also a light tuna salad with fruit and cottage cheese works for me. Of course, light tuna in water and lowfat or nonfat cottage cheese only.

Answer 2

You shouldn't eat within two hours before doing exercise so have a snack mid afternoon - perhaps a small bowl of porridge or a banana. Then eat after exercising - have a light meal.

Answer 3

Depending on the type of exercise, you can have light carbs (fruit or oatmeal) before exercise and some protein (string cheese or a handful of nuts) after exercise. The carbs are for energy and the protein is for muscle repair.

Answer 4

try a protein shake or eat a banana
