Hi everyone, I am new to mfp and already excited on losing the last 15lbs.
I do weight lifting 5 times a week and started to mix in some elliptical exercises in the mix.
Not sure what is happening on some days, but I could eat like a horse sorta speak since I added some elliptical exercises in the mix so I'm not too sure which foods to eat at post-workout since I workout after dinner and at the same time, not losing any muscle gains ??
I feel like I'm putting on more calories after every exercises ??

Any advice would be greatly appreciated !!

    General word on exercise nutrition is to eat carb dense foods prior to exercise and then eat protein rich foods after exercise. In small to medium amounts - not horse amounts! :D . Best advice can be found in the EXERCISE Discussions found in the main forums - I'd recommend you look around through the many discussions listed under that title.
