Late night Food while cutting

[joey10j]

What's the best food to eat late at night while cutting? Flax oil? cottage cheese? tuna plain? 5 slices of 98% fat free turkey?
Some suggestions would be great.
Also, how much is too much flax oil when cutting? 1 0r 2 spoons daily?

Before bed you want something that slow digesting, for example, milk, cottage cheese, tuna, chicken, lean beef. 2 tbsp of flax a day is good when cutting. Personally before bed, I have cottage cheese and flax seed oil.

6 pack..

milk has carbs in...not much protein either...not good choice.

chicken, cott cheese, tuna (low salt) etc is good. dont get the deli sliced turkey it has hidden carbs and not as much protein as unprocceced meat.
add some fat before bed as well..if not flax almonds are good....30g has less than 1g carb..and is good source of fat.

It only contains 11g of carbs, 8g of protein ( you're right, doesn't contain a lot of protein).. But I'm looking at it being 80% casein which is a slow digesting protein, so milk before bed is a slow release of casein which will help keep you in positive nitrogen balance. I agree milk isn't the best option before bed, but it is a good source though.

And you really need to stop your little blurts of confusion, if you're going to give people advice, you need to give a better reason other than "the fact that it will lead to fat gain". Did your pro body building personal trainer tell you that too? LMFAO

thanks for all the replies fellas, but only one guy told me that 2 tbsp of flax is good when cutting. IS THIS TRUE 2 spoons???

it depends on your diet ratios u could be getting enough fat from other meals and 2tbsp could be good as 6pack told me keeps hormones in balance and stuff and it gets u horny or for me it does:/

 

[=w=]

I like to stick to a protein fat meal for my last before bed. Ussually a protein blend shake w/ either a tbls of flax or a couple tbls of peanut butter. But your last meal will really depend on what else you have consumed that day - If you want to lose weight you MUST be in a caloric deficit so saying that 2 tbls is good or bad means nothing without knowing the rest of your diet. Like doofy said if it fits in with your caloric goals and ratios you are shooting for then you are fine.

y? do you think this is a lot or little? i think it sounds right..1-2 tablespoons a day if your not getting enough fat from your meat/poultry
