Need support. I hate how I look!
So here's my story. In 2011 I did medifast for 7 months and lost 70lbs. I went from a size 16 to a 4. The weight melted off. The problem? I was starving and losing major muscle mass.

2 quick questions...
1st...How do I add tons of fat to my diet but not calories? I don't want to go over 1300 but I guess I may have to with all the added fat. 2nd..why isn't American cheese allowed on the keto diet? I see that cheddar is allowed but why not American? Thank you! Sorry I'm such a newbie!
