    As in a chicken salad? Not a problem at all, i have implemented some salad into my dietary approach and i can say it has done nothing but good. I use the chicken for protein of course and the cheese and bacon as the fat.

    Of course this is not a huge salad, i actually get it at Arby's and just have them put grilled chicken on it. I have been doing this once a week, kinda switches things up.

    And of course you wanna make sure to include greens in your diet, especially fiber rich veggies.

    Yeah, i am cutting..but remember i said this is maybe once a week if at all. I use it just to switch things up from time to time. I never have just a pro/veg meal...does it say that? I cannot remember off the top of my head.

    Either pro/fat or pro/carb for me.

    D, why not? I use full fat american cheese in my omelettes and I'm cutting and haven't seen any ill effects whatsoever in the past couple of weeks. In fact, I'm still cutting up. About 10 g of fat and less than 1 g of carbs (meaning, none of those lactic sugars that make you all puffy and also, it keeps the "pro/fat" label intact, if you know what I mean). Swolecat and bigs actually mentioned full-fat cheese on another thread around here and the benefits of using it in pro/fat meals. But that's the only "dairy" product I'll ever go near--cutting or not. The rest of that stuff is just filled with carbs and nastiness that I'd rather not mention.

    Let me know

    I see no problem with it personally but i cannot stress enough how little of it is on this salad and i do not make this a habit.

    I would never even think to include cheese into a cutting diet on a normal basis.

    Lean Protein can = something like steak which alone is a pro/fat meal. I mix veggies in with one of my pro/fat meals daily. The carbs in veggies really don't make a difference simply b/c they are mostly fiber and don't do anything to blood sugar levels.

    cheese can be implemented in a cutting diet as was said, the key is to make sure you are balancing out your overall lipid profile with healthier fats throughout the day. I personally love swiss and cheddar on my egg whites.

    Real cheese = real cheese.

    No processed cheese "food", no low-fat or non-fat cheese, just real full fat cheese.

    (has no carbs/sugars/etc.)

    That's not a problem. You need saturated fats. Incorporating them into a pro/fat meal is the best way to go.
