One of the cool things that I have learned in my personal training course is that the gains that we make from our efforts at the gym are made during recovery. When we are at the gym, we wear down our muscles, and our recovery time helps the muscles come back stronger.
My instructor frequently says that the two most important meals of the day are breakfast and post-workout. The post-workout meal or snack is important because the body needs protein and carbs shortly after a workout to help restore the muscles and provide energy.
Keep that in mind after your next workout. Eat something, even if it's just a hard-boiled egg.
