why does exercise suppress your appetite, and also is it true that after exercise you carrying on burning calories?

[mandimoo]

not sure if exercising suppresses appetite but i think its correct that after exercising your metabolism is still increased for an amount of time after and hence will burn calories more quickly.

Your metabolism is the furnace that converts fuel into energy.

When you workout, your metabolism starts burning fuel - food - to sustain the demands on your body. Once it is going, it keeps going for some time. Regular exercise can give a constantly faster metabolism.

After vigorous exercise, caloric expenditure increase for up to 48 hours
