kickchick: There is a purpose to run after a meal because if you dont all the carbs you just had turn into fat that you would burn the next morning so not running after eating would defeat the purpose of a morning jog.
ya dig?
Or did i read your post wrong? |

yes you do ....but there's no evidence that exercising right after a meal can eliminate the calories you just ate. But this doesn't mean you should nap after a big meal. 
Vigorous exercise before a meal raises your metabolic rate, which will stay at the elevated level even after exercise stops, depending on the length and intensity of the exercise. Your glycogen stores (the energy in muscle and tissue) are reduced. When you eat after exercise, the carbs will be stored easily without being converted to fat.
If you exercise after a meal, the effort and energy required to help absorb the food is diverted from the digestive process. The blood in the muscles of the abdomen is withdrawn and taken to the working muscles putting the digestive process on hold. Intense exercise inhibits the movement of food through the intestines and decreases gastric and pancreatic juice secretions (the process needed for food absorption and breakdown).
The bottom line is, intense exercise is best before you eat in order to decrease your appetite, but take a walk or do light exercise after meals.

KickChick,
So if jogging/running in the morning is one of the best ways to lose weight, will walking in a fast pace be as good? I'm not a morning person, so I think it will be too hard to run in the morning. |

Fast pace walking will probably put you in a fat burning mode at the time, but the metabolic boost is far less.

Sounds good ad,
I'd think in two weeks (concidering you have your diet in check) you will have some results, but think of the long term, give this six months and see how you feel then.
