Basically you should be eating 6 times per day, breakfast/snack/lunch/snack/dinner/snack...Each meal should consist of lean protien + healty carb + healthy fat. Also, are you eating anything before your workout. I think we need more information in order to advise you....In the mean time, spend some time reading the multitude of post on exercise and diet, fitbuddy search is an invaluable tool.... -------------- Even if you are on the right track, you will get run over if you just sit there. -------------- The harder you fall, the higher you bounce

Things like beef, peanut butter are calorically dense and will add to your intake easily. By the way, and excellent post by Fly. :) -------------- Maximus from Gladiator....Strength and Honor!
