What do yall think

Options
What do you think about eating before or after doing Zumba.
If you do eat before what do you eat and how long before do you eat.
If you eat after what do you eat and how long after.

I usually eat after but i know some eat before. Just trying to see what everyone thinks and does.

    My weight loss coach told me to have protein before and after. I usually have a protein bar before and then an hour or so after have dinner. It does give me more energy to do Zumba.

    Three of my Zumba classes are offered right after work, so I go directly to class and then eat dinner approx 1-2hour after class. On the fourth day Zumba class is during lunch hour so I usually eat after class. This past week I found that since I drink so much water it helped me not eat so much. But another time I was really hungry and found myself eating more? I think it depends on what I have for lunch? I think I should try the protein bar or late afternoon snack at work before Zumba nights.

    I get home from work an hour before Zumba. I eat before. And maybe a snack after.
