What are your thoughts on them in a cutting diet.. they seem to be pretty high in Carbs, would this be something ok to eat at night?? Along with a steak or chicken? The only carbs I have during the day are:
9pm instant oatmel
11pm Broccoli or brussell sprouts
1pm Broccoli or brussell sprouts |

INSANT oatmeal??? tisk tisk.. go for old fashioned oats!!
sweet potatoes are an excellent carb source in both a cutting or bulking diet. packed full of nutrients!
when are you training? if its in the evening then the sweet potato is fine, if not then have it earlier in the day.

I new I would get it for the instant oatmeal... I don't have time in the morning to make the old fashioned kind, which honestly I would rather have.. I train around noon on my lunch hour.. what about having a sweet potatoe at the 11 and 1 meals?? is that too much or should I just have one a day??

old fash oats take me 4-5 minutes in the microwave.. could you set your alarm that much earlier ?  having the sweet potato at those meals is fine as well. just keep track of progress

Slow cooking oats only take me about 5 mins to cook on the stove top. Put them on as soon as you get up. Go and get other things ready while they cook. Its all about time management.

I would also suggest ditching the instant oatmeal. Take a couple of extra minutes and cook good old fashioned oats. Sweet potatoes are an excellent carb source whether you're dieting or not so definitley keep them in your diet.
