You would cut out all Hi GI foods.
Only eat Low GI carbs early in the day, up untill your workout.
Dueing this time you should keep fats to a minimum.
Then after your workout, you should be eatting minimum carbs and replace them with healthy fats.
You need to workout how many cals you will be eatting.

Thanks, GI is Glysemic Index right? What carbs are low on that? Rice? Whole Wheat bread?
Did a quick google, found ... Answered my question, maybe someone else could check it out too if they need it 
But what I still dont get is, how low is LOW GI? Where is that line that cant be crossed... 50? Thanks in advance

Also, what I have to do is eat COMPLEX CARBS... But can I also eat firbous carbs? Fruits? Veggies? Fruits are a bit high on the GI, so not sure about fruits, but veggies, are they good? Maybe post some sample foods I could eat in a workout day?
Fiber is essential, yes go for it - but not close to your workout.
Fruit is a must, they do have a lot of sugar so work them in small quantities thru the day or close to your workout.
Vegg - You gotta eat your vegg man! Dont substitute health for weight loss. You need fruit and vegg so work them in to your diet.

Should I take in the fruits before workout? after workout? is a fruit smoothie with 100% Whey good for PWO? Then some healthy fats and protein for PPWO? Veggies I would rather take during the night... Maybe a tuna salad, or some steamed veggies... Sound good?
yes to all the above apart from fats.
Keep fats to a min before and after your workout as they slow down digestion. You want to get the carbs and protein digested as quick as pos.
But add healthy fats during the evening is great. Maybe add a flavored olive oil to your tuna salad.
A great last meal of the day would be dark green vegg, tuna salad with cheese and olive oil.

Awesome... Post workout and post post... Simple carbs? Or still COMPLEX?
Right...
1st thing in the morning till 1hour before your workout - Complex carbs.
30mins before workout, during workout and directly after workout - Simple carbs
Post workout meal - complex carbs
from then on - Zero carbs, just healthy fats
It goes without saying that you take protein all day.

COuld someone post up examples of healthy fats other than peanuts and almonds, etc? WHen is the best time for fruits? During the day right? Not before bed...
