You might want to try something for energy. The time between your workouts is a great time to take in some of those "bad" carbs. Protein is good to maintain muscle, but without some carbs to help the insulin uptake, it won't get to your muscles. Any good carbs will take too long to absorb to do you any good. Try a whey protein shake (easily absorbed) or a 1/2 a whey protein energy bar. Good luck! 

I have read that if you do cardio after weight training it actually burns more calories. Plus you have the energy to really put in the effort for the weight training. I have started doing that. I do just half a mile before the gym then the rest after. 

thanks and i appreciate all the help...i will check into it...
