Working out makes me even hungrier than I am normally.
I don't know what it is about me, but I'm never full until I'm STUFFED.
However, after working out one Saturday morning I tried this meal out as a post-workout light meal, and it was actually kept me full for a while.
What you'll need:
2 slices THIN whole wheat bread- toasted
2 tablespoons lite cream cheese
(I used whipped with chives)

I drank a small glass of Green Goodness juice as well.

LOVE Avocados. So amazing.
ReplyDeleteI usually just drink a boring old protein shake. I'm so hungry too after working out that I MUST do something immediately - e.i shake. ;)
That actually looks pretty tasty. I always get really really hungry after working out. Generally I'll make my green monster smoothie. spinach, peanut butter, honey, milk, banana, oats, ice, protein powder...other fruits if I have them and sometimes cinnamon. I love it!!
