Both, I eat every 3 hours, so technically
Always have a pre and post work out Meal
This is me as well @watts6151 with the pre workout meal consumed an hour before the workout and the post workout more or less straight away if I have worked out late at night or an hour or so if the workout is before lunchtime.1 -
Beer and pizza.0

depends on the time of day...usually lunch or dinner...
there is going to be little to no benefit of eating right after a workout for most people...for most people, overall diet is numero uno...most of this kind of stuff is beneficial to the elite level athlete, not your average Joe/Jane knocking out 30 minutes on the elliptical or pushing and pulling some weight for an hour.0 -
Chocolate milk with whey protein,unless I'm about to have lunch anyway.0

I don't eat anything specifically for post workout. If it's a morning workout, I just have my coffee and breakfast after my shower. If its an evening workout, I go home and cook dinner and eat it.0

I am usually done with my workouts midmorning so I just have a snack, usually a protein bar (Quest) and a banana. I should start making smoothies again because I have had a craving for them, but I am lazy!1

I do try to make sure I'm eating some protein/carbs afterward a workout. Sometimes, it's just dinner or I might have a protein shake, protein bar, or some Greek yogurt and honey nut Cheerios. It depends on when I worked out.1

Protein, protein, protein.....1

anything that's too slow to escape . . .
actually, these days i lift first and then go do my grocery errands. so lately i've been buying a couple of extra oranges and finding somewhere to eat those before i head home.1
