Which is better and why? I always eat the Greek yogurt but I just had some 2% cottage cheese with almond butter and it was awesome. Thinking of switching teams.

Any reason not to!

Plain Greek Yogurt + 1/2 scoop of protein + diced bananas

~300 calories
~35g protein

This is as close to "dessert" as I get..

I hate Greek yogurt. Needless to say I go with the cottage cheese. The only down side I have found; generally speaking. is that cottage cheese has a much higher sodium content per serving.

You guys that don't like Greek yogurt should try what I posted above (Dannon lite and fit) it is amazing...not like the others. Seriously.

Try it,

Something about cottage cheese makes me gag.

0 fat Fage for me. I mix in a teaspoon of vanilla extract, cinnamon and stevia. Been putting oatmeal in it too since spongy added cals. It tastes pretty damn awesome.

Spongy added cals? You lucky bastard!

And the gagging is probably because plain cottage cheese is like eating cold vomit

Cold vomit...that is a very accurate description haha.

Lucky? Prolly haha. He added cals, I cheated two nights in a row (prolly went over by 1000cals each time) and I lost nearly 4 pounds from last week...what the eff.

Just keep doing what he says... Its possible you might actually be in a recomp. That could have been fat loss. I hate spongy. He was so mean to me. No pizza, donuts, chinese... nothing. Just some beans and some turkey and shit :(

I change from one to the other. I use Fage 0% also. Sometimes with clover honey and sometimes with polnar farms sugar free jelly.

Grind, go back and click on my link for cottage cheese brother. The cottage cheese I eat (in the link) has 60 mg sodium per serving and tastes completely different and better than regular (salt water tasting) cottage cheese.

If you try it, you will not be disappointed bro!

Much Respect,
