bro it sounds good but honestly i wouldnt have the protein powder because it gets me up and prevents me from sleeping. if you ask me i would have a tin of tuna instead with only one tablespoon of flax.

Uh.... Spoon why does protein powder keep you up:? What kinda of powder are you using lol.
A can of tuna w/ 1 tablespoon of flax/olive oil is fine before bed. Me personally, I use a Shake w/ 1 tablespoon of flax.
What you posted originally CanadianSteel is overkill on the fats. 1 tablespoon of flax & 40-60g of protein will last you through the night. The ammount of fat you posted will be stored as fat most likely.

Too much of anything can be stored as fat.....
And I think 2 tablespoons is overdoing it IMO.... Just curious how big are you? Give some stats

Definitely no need for 2 tablespoons.... or more than 50g of protein before bed IMO. I am almost identical size and that's what I utilize w/ no problem whatsoever. If you are worried about catabolism just take some glutamine before bed as well.

i use optimum powder. i know a lot of people who get restless when taking any kind of protein shake before bedtime. one is ok, two serving will keep me up til 3am maybe its just me. i know i sleep better with a solid meal

Me either.... i don't see why anything that doesn't have caffiene in it would keep you up. But maybe your body is more sensative to the contents of whey than mine?

does your protein come in little baggies from the guy on the corner wearing the trenchcoat? :P

LMFAO @ a protein shake keeping someone up.
Talk about totally un-related.
No need for cottage cheese if you have an EFA in the shake already, that slows digestion well enough.
