My body is a good sore. After my workouts this week my body needed some nourishment and I chose to re-fuel with some of these food & drink items:

Coconut Water it is low in calories, contains electrolytes like sodium, magnesium & potassium, and only has natural sugars

Here are some other great options post-workout:

  • fruit, yogurt & granola,
  • turkey sandwich
  • cheese & whole grain crackers
  • protein shake with fruit and nut butter
  • low-fat chocolate milk
  • omelet with veggies
