im 5'11 185lbs bf between 15-18%. i plan to cut for a couple more weeks, and then start a bulking diet after that. i would like to try to lose a couple of bf points before i bulk.

doesnt look too bad, is it working for you thus far? what are your stats/

if ur cutting diet isn't working well i'd lose the cottage cheese

I would not drop the cottage cheese, since dairy products have been documented to help with fat los. I don't see any signifigant amount of fat in yoru diet, and you are drowning yourself in protien shakes. Shoot for at least 6 real food meals, and drop the MRP's except for post workout. YOu are not getting enough EFA's, and that can imped fat loss. Try adding some flax seed oil and a few fish oil tabs every day. Two salids a day is probably not enough green veggies either.
