Is it better to eat right after you work out or wait?

[Anonymous]

For weight loss purposes.
I read that for women is better to wait 90 minutes after the exercise to eat because the body burns more fat, but for men is better to eat right after.

thoughts?
I am usually very hungry after I finish my workouts but I am not sure what do, I want to lose some pounds

for me, i never eat after i workout. i know a lot of people do but i HATE the psychological effects i get from it. even though i know that TECHNICALLY it's okay, i still feel guilty, so i just drink water.

if I'm dying of hunger then ill have fruit.

I've never hear about waiting. I've always been told to eat something that has protein directly after.

I usually eat approximately 30 minutes to an hour after I work out. I learned this through trial and error over the years.

However, if you're hungry, there is nothing wrong with eating right after you work out. Everybody is different.
