If you're diabetic or otherwise susceptible to low blood sugar, try to to time your exercise to just before a meal. Breakfast is always the best meal for this.
Another advantage for morning exercise is that it ups your metabolism for the day, helping you lose a little more weight.
If you do exercise prior to lunch or dinner, prep the meal ahead of time to minimize cooking. The longer you allow the hunger to build, the more you'll eat, possible undoing any gains.
Keep in mind that you will be hungry, so always make sure you have a light snack available, at least, after a work out.
Suffice to say that if you work out with friends, it may not be a bad idea to grab something afterwards. It can build up the friendship as well as give you all a much needed chance to cool down.
