Greek Yogurt in Bulking Diet? Question Mark?

[nguadagno]

good idea or bad idea?

160 calories, 13g of protein, 21g of carbs, 3g of fat (2 from saturated fats)

i eat them just as a snack every so often, like maybe before i go to bed or somewhere between my meals

Go for it. Personally, i'd keep it cleaner and go with plain greek yogurt (what you listed is almost all sugar), but that's just me. I wouldn't be AS concerned on a bulk, unless you struggle with bodyfat to any degree.

I eat Greek yogurt everyday.
Usually before bed. With Natty Peanut Butter and a glass of Milk.
Great for bulking.

As Gbrice said.. buy the plain unflavored. If its too yucky for you, I pour on it some Jello Fat free/Sugar free pudding powder.

And mix it up.

Or cinnamon and splenda.

Or sugar free syrup.

Or sugar free jelly. Hmm.

Yeah so go for it.

hahah does 5'6" 145 count for fat problems? hahah id hope not, im a ectomorph..i think?

[*west*]

When I bulk every night before bed I mix:
1.5 cups plain fat free yogurt
1 scoop Myofusion Protein Powder
1 cup Granola
.5 cups frozen blueberries

Cut the granola out if its to much carb for you.

Main thing is...hit your daily macros. If this fits in...fine.
Id use ther plain as well and flavor myself as i tend to like to be as healthy as possible even when bulking - so i stay away from sugar wherever possible. I dont respond well to sugar - so i almost have to.
My advice - hit your daily macros with as many low gi carbs , protein and healthy fats as it takes. Do that and you will progress. (combined with proper training and rest of course)
