What about shorter workouts? I increased my mileage yesterday to 2.4 miles (at about 14 minute miles-slow, yes. running the whole time, heck ya!). There is still a ton of ice on the sidewalks so I was staying very aware of my surroundings.

Upon my return home I wasn’t hungry at all. And so I was wondering. Do I need to eat? I have the habit of eating back the calories I burn after work outs and so I want to avoid that. Since I wasn’t hungry, I didn’t eat. I am drinking water. But that’s it for now. I think I’m going to keep listening to what my body wants. But I’m curious what you guys do (and keep losing weight! I always gained when I workout hard because I ate too much!)

How do you eat after a workout? What’s the threshold for a post workout snack? Do you have to feel hungry? Do you always grab a handful of trail mix? I’m so curious about what you guys are doing.
