    My trainer insists we eat immediately after a workout. She suggest something crunchy like apples or carrots etc to rev
    our metabolism. That's what I do.

    Crunchy foods "rev" your metabolism? Interesting.

    Interesting! i never though of combining the two.. I'll have to try it. I love my whey choc. powder and love fage 0% (plain).
    i'll have to try it tomorrow.

    quick workout .. 1/2 hour I'm not hungry.. but on gym days (3x week).. I burn 700 or more.. I have 100% whey powder, 1 scoop w/water, banana (small one), and sometimes even a zone perfect bar. they are so good.
    I'm starving after the gym, and if I don't eat, I feel very tired!

    I'm a huge fan of 0% fat plain greek yogurt + fruit after workouts lately.

    FAGE! love greek yogurt....mix in chocolate protein powder...its like pudding

    A cup of low fat chocolate milk.

    This.

    Agreed. Or a heaping teaspoon of peanut butter.
