A lot of this would be dependant on the type of foods eaten, the quantity of food eaten in relation to digestion and metabolism. also the level of activity that followed the consumption of food eg. sitting on the couch after a meal vs. weight training/cardio etc. Of course there is all the usual signs: feeling of hunger, fatigue, hunger pains, shaking, low blood sugar etc etc.Quote:

If its stimulants/fat burners etc i usually just wait till i feel them begin to kick in then eat if i have to
Yeah I was figuring about a 1/2 hour before you eat or about an hour afterwards. Just a guess though.Quote:
