Just wondering if there is rule of thumb for waiting time between exercise-eating or eating-exercise. I waited about 45 mintues after dinner before I did my 30DS and feel ok right now but everyday is different. Any opinions or suggestions are welcomed.

    It's really an individual thing. Personally I have to wait at least two hours after a meal or 1 hour after a light snack. It's something you just learn what works for you through trial and error. I know what I can and can't eat and how long I need to wait.

    If you felt fine, then there is no issue
