I havent pre-thought my meals very well this week.
Thursday is a nightmare ds1 has gym from 4.15 til 5pm.
So I get back about 5.20pm.
Spin is at 18.45
DH goes to the gym when I come back at 19.30.

So my question is can I have a small stir-fry about 5.30 before spin at 6.45?
Its fairly light and Im not doing any jumping or running, will I be ok or will I vomit everywhere

thanks harley cant even wait til I come back because then dh would not be able to go til 9ish.
Agree its better with some food inside you, sometimes I can actually see the instructors head turning into a great big burger

I nearly puked the one time I went spinning and I hadn't eaten anything

I think you'll be fine with that timing.

I am a fitness instructor and i suggest a light bite . . banana toast etc. . . .not a stir fry ! Eat that after maybe. Spinning is tough and you will only feel sick during if you have eaten a meal just b4. . . Leave a good hour after snack tea IMHO.
