Went out today and bought groceries. Made meals for the rest of the week.

Turkey Meatloaf (enough for 5 days)
1 lb ground turkey
1 organic egg
2 cups rolled oats
garlic
onions

Ground Turkey meat with cilantro (enough for 5 days wrapped in wheat tortillas)

24 Hard boiled eggs ready to eat

10 pre-portioned bags of trail mix

Sliced Turkey (5 lbs.) for sandwiches on rye bread


I am trying to lose 25 lbs. (mainly from my mid-section) before I add any size
I am having trouble with when to eat what.

I am eating 6 meals a day and I workout in the morning to afternoon hours.
having said all that....do I eat a Pro shake BEFORE or AFTER my workout??
Do I need hi-glycemic fruits BEFORE or AFTER my workout??
Is a banana or blueberries and strawberries considered hi-glycemic??
Should I eat an actual meal right after my workout or just a light snack or just a shake??

I am 6'5" and 231 lbs. My ideal weight is 205 according to many health charts. My workouts will be mainly cardio until I get to about 210 lbs at which time I will begin a more intense lifting program.

Sorry to be so unorganized but this is very confusing for a newbie! I have read MANY other posts but still can't get direct answers to these dumb questions that I have!

Thanks for everything!!
