If you've not got a problem with lactose cottage cheese is brill, if you do, maybe stick with milk protein concentrate or milk protein isolate which has lower levels of lactose.

I wouldn't be opposed to eating some oat based carbohydrate before bed if you're looking to add mass. Hot milk and a handful of oatcakes works quite well and shouldn't keep you up.

Cant eat cheese because of the lactose. Before bed id have either 3 eggs and toast or a shake mixed with oats.

that would depend on the cheese then :)

If you eat before bed protein is the best choice

"i have been following a strict bulking diet..." There's your problem.

As long as your diet contains enough proteins, slowly absorbed carbohydrates and Essential Fatty Acids, eat whatever you want (except for man-made trans-fats), monitor your rate of weight gain and adjust accordingly.

1) DON'T PANIC! 2) Assumption is the mother of all cock-ups. 3) Where's the omega-3 fat?
