Question: Are proteins bars good for weight loss? are they okay to eat before working out? will the sugar turn to fat?

Hello, im 16 years old, i need to lose 30 pounds of fat, and gain muscle to tone my body. I lost 50 pounds before unhealthily and and loss a lot of muscle so im going to lose the 30 pounds right this time. I just joined a gym a few days ago and school started. The gym is right down the street from the school. I started yesterday going to the gym; doing 60 minutes of cardio and weight training. Such as today i did 30 minutes on the elliptical then weight training for about 10 minutes maybe then 30 minutes on the bike. Yesterday i did not have enough energy to do as much and today i felt great. the difference is i ate a protein bar about a half hr or 40 minutes before i was at the gym. Is that healthy to eat protein bars if im trying to lose weight? it had a lot of sugar and some carbs. I think that's how i got the energy to work out. am i still benefiting from doing that? will the sugar just be used as energy and i will lose weight? or the exercise i did was for the protein bar i ate? it was a big 100 bar. i usually eat cliff builders bars though, they say its all natural. is that okay if i start eating them before the gym? i really need a good answer to this, i didnt want to lose weight the wrong way again! Thanks! |
