Pre-bedtime meal

[csobel]

I'm trying to lean up for some period of time, and I was wondering if I should forego the pre-bedtime meal? If not, what is the best thing to eat--some drink whey, but I think that metabolizes too fast.

Background: 6'2", 212lbs, ~10%bf. Currently consuming ~3000 cal/day plus cardio to get cut up.

Thanks!

protiens and fats
whey is ok but its absorbed fast adding fat slows digestion of the protien
micellar casien is a good choice ,it absorbs slower than the whey
i always eat something before bed wether iam cutting or not .i would not recomend alot of carbs in your pre betime meal just protien and some good fat

I have a little ice cream blended in with 1 cup of cottage cheese and maybe a scoop of whey. gets casein protein and fats. tasty too.

Yeah, some casein and/or low-fat cottage cheese is a good idea. If you're cutting dairy out of your diet then maybe a chicken breast or some tuna would be ideal.

You can also do some EFAs, but if you are that paranoid then have them earlier in the day and just go with the casein.

I have a tablespoon of flax oil and 50g of a blend of whey and casein. Works pretty well for me whether I'm cutting or bulking.
