What do you recommend i eat after my run? I only run 2miles, so i don't eat anything before i run. I've been eating oatmeal mixed with chopped banana.
 
That should be fine. Make sure you count your calories too if you're trying to meet a weight loss/gain goal.

I used to drink a heavy protein shake but I also ran cross country/long distance track. Didn't wanna end up looking like a skeleton xD
 
@patelpb not really trying to lose weight, just trying to eat right and get toned, and thanks yeah i've seen a few of those at my old highschool haha.
 
I'd recommend watermelon. It's healthy and it'll rehydrate your body. Make sure it's sliced before you begin running so that you don't have to do it after.
 
@dolphins i'll try that out next time, right now i'm making a bowl of oatmeal with banana.
 
@agony lol pasta? no way, not in the mornings.
