So after my workout I had a quest bar and then a tablespoon of almond butter , did I just ruin my progress for that workout by having a healthy fat ?

    What does that have to do with your workout? I would change your quest bar for some real food though. Almond butter (unsweetened) is perfect for post workout reloading.

    Healthy fat or even regular fat (whatever that means) doesn't make you fat, a surplus in calories is what makes you fat.

    Your fine OP. :)

    What is this a joke ?
    Really you ate food oh no >_> healthy fats are good just eat well through out the day , it doesn't destroy a workout what you eat afterwards ( granted you don't want to shovel down a mass amount of coke and McDonald's) just keep to your macros and cals

    No. I eat foods all day, every day. Hit your macros and calorie goals is all that matters.

    You exercised and you ate some food that you like - all sounds good to me.

    Really worrying about timing of eating after a workout, or what kinds of food you eat after a workout makes virtually zero difference to 99.9% of the population.

    Enjoy your exercise, enjoy your food in the correct quantities over the course of a day (or even a few days) and you will be fine.

    What if a mass amount of coke and McDonald's fit my calories, macros and overall nutritional goals?

    And you're still alive?

    As others have said no big deal. Meal timing around exercise is majoring in the minors

    Somewhere, Chad Johnson/Ochocinco is laughing at this.

    Three or four McDonald's McDoubles (or two Big Macs) is frequently an important part of my diet and has been for many decades now. Still in excellent condition and with excellent metabolic markers.

    Oh, and still alive too.

    (But it probably only works for me because I don't believe McDonald's food is magical (or anti-magical).)

    Thread title this was an accident. Did the OP file an incident report? How does one accidentally consume food? Does this explain those Suggestion threads where people ask to add a feature where the app will notify them if they are meat?

    Nope. Fat doesn't make us fat, eating too much of anything does...
