| Back in the gym after 6 months of being a pussy | Post workout, low-GI carb sources? I apologize if this has been discussed before, but it's tough to search for GI information on a board search. I'm switching my post-workout nutrition to low-GI carbs. I've been using one scoop of high-GI gatorade powder for almost a year now and I've seen no VAT reduction with an otherwise clean diet. I'm working too damn hard to feel bloated all the time. I want to see if the carbs may be the reason. Besides ground oats, what are some other low-GI carbs I can put into a shake? I follow the PW shake with a bowl of oatmeal and a whey shake about 1.5 hours later... |

| Pork Chop | I only use skim milk and whey, no carb source other than the lactose in milk (which seems to be a mild GI and has arguably low lipogenicity. That, in combination with the small insulin spike from whey is convincing enough for me to not add another carb source. |

| Registered User | Sweet potato/yams are fairly low GI. Just look at "good" carb sources you normally use. Also, barley, and other fiberous grains. |

| Bill Walsh, aka "The Genius" R.I.P. | I make a whey shake, throw it in the blender with some oatmeal and voila. |

As far as oats, I put some in my food processor today, and then put them in a whey shake. Holy gritty. Did I just not ground them up enough? I'd imagine they'd never really dissolve into the whey+water but part of me was hoping they would. If I must, I'll stop being such a pussy and deal with it. Anything else I can throw into a whey+water shake? I'd use milk but having just bought a house I'm cutting costs wherever I can until I get used to having $1500 less per month. Thanks as usual guys. | |

| Board Supporter | I always grind 1/2 cup of oatmeal in a food processor and make my shake ahead of time. When I'm ready to drink it, the oatmeal has soaked up alot of the water and it goes down easy. |
