I've been doing some research on the glycemic index thing. It isnt a fad or anything , it seems to make sense and it's what several of you are pretty much doing. Low glycemic index foods release sugar into the blood at a slower rate so you dont get hungry as quickly. When my trainer said not to eat peanut butter on whole wheat bread its because I'm trying to lose weight quickly. Whole wheat bread in general has a higher GI than say 7grain bread and its better for me to eat egg whites. Being a vegetarian makes that real boring for me!!! But yeah get something high GI after a workout like recovery drink or powerbar. I'll post a link when I find it.
