cottage cheese?

[Alphatier]

Is cottage cheese ok when cutting? I was thinking before bed cuz of the casein. If it's ok to consume while cutting, what fat% should one get(0,1,2,4)?

i get 1%.. be careful with sugar content tho ive seen pinaple with liek 15g sugar! that would spike up your insulin big time before bed.. it is a slower absorbing protein.. i eat it with my last meal and for my bedtime meal its casein+flax

Go with the fat free, but be careful 1/2 cup has 5g of sugars. I don't eliminate cottage cheese when cutting but I only use 1/2 cup and mix it into a shake consisting of 1 scoop ON casein protein and 1 tbl sp natty pb. Taste suprisingly good and only has 305 cals.

Ok thanks for the advice guys. Really the reason I asked was because of the sugar and me being on a low carb diet. Also I usually avoid carbs before bed, except on carb-up day.
