    Before : ECA stack for energy, with my previous meal coming about 1.5-2 hours earlier.

    After: dextrose/isolate/r-ala/biotin/vs/possibly glutamine.

    ECA before (or else I would die - I love the energy boost) and protien bar after. Kinda boring? Sorry, but you asked.

    Yeah, it's "fine", but keep in mind that it will depend on what the other meals over the course of the day look like. It's easy to say it's fine, but relative to what......see what I mean?
