Hair loss on Keto?

IF Question
Is it still considered fasting if you drink coffee with coconut oil in the morning? I have it in my mind that because I'm not chewing actual food food and only eating around dinner time that I'm still doing intermittent fasting...or am I completely wrong because I'm still consuming calories from the coconut oil and coffee??

Do you trust fast food nutrition on their websites?
Occasionally I will enjoy fast food and always log what I eat. I get my information off the restaurants website. Do you trust that information? It bothers me to think I could be thinking the calories are "this" but really is "that". Like, the small fry I ordered may have been more closer to a medium.. Do you know a better…
