Right im bulking, changed my diet abit as i was gaining abit of a gut....no carbs after 6pm unless i train after work which willl carry my meal after 6pm
I know ppl say Cottage cheese in a protein shake - i have no cottage cheese atm & my protein shake contains 50g of carbs per serving so i dont want 1 of those before bed?
what over foods can i eat before bed? last night i was starving so i had half tin of tuna fish & 400ml of milk blended with 1 banana & 2 spoonful of Peanut Butter
once i change my protein shake to low carb high protein i can have 1 before bed.
any idea's?

Cuz carbofatigenesis converts them carbs into fat overnight while you sleep, it's triggered by melatonin levels in the forebrain.
no but srs OP it don't matter, I like to eat my more filling, bigger meals an hour or two before i go to sleep especially when I'm cutting cuz night hunger sucksEvery aspiring lad wants to be a bodybuilder, but by George, nobody wants to elevate these burdensome weights.

Are the scales changing? How do you know it's the carbs? You also say "all through the day and night" if you've calculated you're macros, it should be fine. I think it's just a matter of you not calculating your calorie + macro intake and you're eating over the required amount.
EDIT: You said you're bulking, ofcourse you're going to be gaining a bit of a gut, idiot.

what do you reckon then, as carbs apparently stores as fat after 6pm i persumed this, i did say a fitness instructor from my local gym advised me this, which is why i thought id cut out carbs after 6pm
what would u guys recomend? just carry on bulking and not worry about fat gains just get on with it?
