5 Foods to Eat Before and After Exercise to Maximize Weight Loss

Okay, I realize I’m not your sports model who works out all the time and stays super slim. 

Actually, I’m quite the opposite.  But when I read this article, I thought I’d share it with you because it’s simple to do and it seems to be working for me. 

I have read all kinds of theories about eating or not eating certain kinds of food after exercising, but nothing ever stuck because it was too complicated. 

So here is the CliffsNotes ® version for you:

BEFORE EXERCISE:

• Nuts (100 grams of almonds or walnuts)
• Oatmeal with a handful of blueberries
• Whole-grain bread with low-fat cheese

AFTER EXERCISE:

• Whey protein and almond milk
• Scrambled eggs with a glass of orange juice
