After you eat food and exercise

It draws on them as needed. Hmmmm, that is no where near phrased correctly but my point is in there somewhere. Hopefully someone with a better understanding will come along and clarify it for us. Just try and think of the meal you have as a fuel source for that workout. That's what I do and that's what I'm basing my idea on. Again, don't quote me, this is just my thoughts. I'd like to know for sure as well. Your pic looks fine by the way, might look better in color, but anyway, not seeing any "bees". -------------- Hungry and mean!
