I would research the Paleo diet and the Specific Carbohydrate diet. They are both helpful for achieving a healthy gut environment. I know those who do Paleo often find they become more muscular and more built from the high fat/no grain diet. The specific carbohydrate diet link is here........http://www.breakingtheviciouscycle.info/legal/legal_illegal_a-c.htm

im thinking sweet potatoes or yams, coconut milk, plantains, tubers and ground beef would be best b/c they are less likely to cause acne.

I lost weight once I started eating healthy, which was bad cuz I went from 105 lbs down to 98 lbs (at 5'4 -- but still, is pretty low). I've been eating more "healthy" fats such as olive oil -- put an extra bit on my salad/veggies + extra virgin coconut oil. Also, full fat greek yoghurt, and upping my red meat intake a little. I know some people have issues with meat, but I've never broken out from meat.
