I just started working out with a trainer this week, she has told me I need to get some protein in after my workouts. I tried a shake and the gym and didn't much care for it, if I had to I would drink it, but I am looking for some alternatives. She wants me to start tracking my food intake, and that scares me. She has also told me I am not to have any pasta, potatoes, bread or rice at night. What would be a safe cut-off time for these? I work 1 night a week, and usually bring Subway for my dinner, but now I am thinking I might need to not even do that. I do have access to a microwave at work.
