On days that you exercise

Lizshouse88

Do you eat more, less or the same (without TRYING to eat that way)...?? I noticed that on days I exercise I tend to eat a lot less than days that I dont - meaning I HAVE to eat after i'm done or I haven't had enough fr the day. I guess that kinda proves I am a bored eater huh??

I guess I should re-word that - are you more hungry or less hungry or the same LOL.... of course a lot of us eat our calories back but what I meant is like do you tend to want to eat more or less etc.

I eat about the same.

i am STARVING after a hard work out. I eat more on days i work out, and less on days i dont work out.

When I exercise it seems like I'm not that hungry that day.. Kinda like I am forcing myself to eat just to get my calories in...

StarrDanos

I tend to be less hungry on the days I work out real hard. Especially right after!

theflyingartist

I tend to usually be less hungry/eat less as well on days when i exercise!

My appetite doesn't vary too much depending upon exercise. I do eat more on days that I exercise, but only to fuel myself, not necessarily b/c I'm hungrier.

My intake varies more depending upon whether or not I'm eating out with friends, what time of the month it is, whether hubby has the day off, etc.

I'm more hungry on days that i do exercise- so i eat more.

As i try to plan what i eat in advance i eat the same as i would on a day with no real exercise in it.... I don't feel hungry after my zumba classes as i think i've eaten what i should've during the day.

I find I'm hungrier the day after a huge calorie burn. So, I usually save some exercise calories for the next day.

I find it depends on my workout for the day. If I'm running 3-5 miles or on the elliptical for an hour, I'm STARVING. If I just do Jillian or go for a walk, I don't notice a difference.

usually a bit more

I am usually hungrier on exercise days and definitely tend to eat more!

It depends, but I'm usually more hungry on those days. Like yesterday, I had a 5+ miles run, and if I didn't eat most of those back my body would feel horrible for the rest of the day. Lighter workouts, sometimes I can't tell.

I typically eat about the same or slightly less on my exercise days. Exercise actually curbs my appetite.

The biggest difference for me being hungry is if I eat a lot of carbs without much protein. I just burn through the carbs and am starving all day. If I eat a bit of protein along with the carbs I do much better.

Depends. Usually more.

If I've done cardio at the gym or took the dog a long walk I find Im not really hungry but the day after I have a very hungry day. But I find if I've done weights at the gym I'm starving right away! Sometimes having to stop the workout to go get food!

I swim for an hour straight everyday and then do 30 mins of water calisthenics and right after my workout I am starving. I can literally feel when my body is running on empty. Its like I swam off all my energy. I try to time my workouts so it is lunch time when I get home. Then I load up on healthy food and proteins. But on days I also walk, I find I am not hungry after walking or jogging...

I agree. I have been going to the gym three days a week for the past month after work. I find that I am not hungry when I get home and really don't want to eat.
