2% Milk Ok or not for cutting

[bigpopapump]

I was 248lb's before I started my cutting diet. 2 weeks latter I am now down to 240lb's. Is it ok to use 2% milk to mix up my Whey protien in? I was going to mix the whey protien, 2% milk and flax oil together in a blender if this was ok. I was only going to use the milk 1 time a day because it makes my shakes alot better. please let me know what you think.

NO. Use water.Definitely no milk in a serious cutter.

i used too think 2% milk meant-2% fat total..come to find out its only reduced by 2%.now i use fat free in my shakes...still if your cutting i think the advice above is best...water

[niXon)(]

if youre serious about it use water

cup nonfat milk has 13g's sugar too

[SwoleCat]

Water all the way. Milk has no place in a cutting diet.

(what I consider a cutting diet)

Thanks everyone for there input. I will stick to the water and give the kids the milk for the breakfast.

good question

So 1% has more fat then 2%....?

[bigpopapump]

I think so, it is just reduced by 1%. Dont know why they would even bother really.

[WEBB]

milk is a no no for sure...if you HAVE to have it then go with skim or non fat and only use a quater of what you normally would and use water for the rest...

[bigpopapump]

Now would this mean that cottage cheese is also a no no when cutting? I have not eaten very much of it but at night would have about 1/2 cup for night time.

[SwoleCat]

That's not nearly as bad being that the carb (sugar) content in cottage cheese is low compared to that of milk.

[bigpopapump]

Thanks SC for clearing that up.

1% milk has LESS FAT than 2%....it's what I eat ED with cereal, add to cream of wheat...and am proud to be down to 1% from whole....but never have run a cutting diet...YET....ALL MILK HAS NATTY SUGAR...the 1% is like desert to me, still. so sorry.. WATER!... IF SERIOUS CUTTING

[GQ-Bouncer]

bah, you anti-milk heathens :|


dude, make the switch to skim milk, it's an aquired taste, but once you get it, you'll never go back

[SHAOKAHN]

After much trial and error, came to the conculsion...For me...Milk has no place cutting or bulking

2% has less fat than 1%??? No chance, bro. If that was the reduced percentage of fat in the dairy you could pound whole cream in your PWO shake. haha

[zaggahamma]

this feels like algebra class

[Latino~Heat]

milk is good for the body!

i had a shake yesterday, and i replaced the milk for water and it was nasty.... Gonna take a while to get use to

[SwoleCat]

It's all about how bad you want it.

Suck it up!

I see lots of people complain about not being able to use milk in shakes, hating the taste of flax oil, etc.

Be like Nike and just f*ckin' do it!

i just recently picked up some carb countdown fat free milk from the super market. it also comes in 2%. 3 grms carbs, 3 grms sugar for 8 oz. It tastes better than water in my shakes. you guys should try it.

[zaggahamma]

never thought to look for a skinnier milk...thought drinking 1% was incredible enough til bros here said no no...I'll try it...at least on on my way down to water
