I workout 6days a week, i've been doing this for going on 4years now, what i've found is that pre-workout i need a small amout of complex carbohydrates ( half cup cereal/ bannana/ an orange/ serving oatmeal) but post workout I'm going to eat at least 400cal with about a third to one half being Protein. I found that by Increasing the amount of protein post-workout i reduce the amount of muscle fatigue i get ( i'm not as muscle sore the next day)

You really need to increase your caloric intake, as for your IBS I might suggest an unorthodox fix, try smoking 2-3 cigarettes a day, as a healthcare professional I normally discourage tobacco use but I have seen this treatment be Very effective in some patients.........

 

what did you all not understand about the phrase "unorthodox fix" this poor girl stated in the SECOND line of her post that it was the PAIN and DISCOMFORT of her IBS that was  keeping her from eating to the caloric level required by her Dr..  I'm just trying to relieve her pain and you guys act like i'm trying to poison her.........a couple a cigarettes a day for a few weeks won't hurt her in the long run but short term it "COULD" relieve her pain which was the point i was trying to make. Obviously I don't want her to become a chronic tobacco user?? I mean I wouldn't wish that "STINKING HELL" on anyone ( i grew up surounded by smokers). So, I'm so VERY sorry for trying to offer some comfort and pain relief to this poor girl, just doing what i've been trained to do, so get over yourselves actually read what i posted and THINK before you type.
