You've had an amzing first round! Congrats!

You don't say what else you are eating. It is really important to keep your calories up in P3, inspite of how weird that sounds. DO IT. You may have a gain because you aren't eating enough! Coconut oil should not be a problem, or at least I haven't heard people say they've had a problem with it. I love it. I have heard of people having trouble with Mozz. The problem with lots of cheese is that they have a lot of sodium, so if you are eating 800 calories worth of cheese, your sodium could be way too high = water gain. You could also be getting hidden sugar, especially at the deli! The deli counter is not a friend to a P3'er. They might as well sprinkle the whole thing with brown sugar.

As for choices, I find that the closer my food is to being natural, the better off I am. I like cheese, too, and eat cheddar and yogurt cheese without any problem. But American cheese is an invention... it isn't really cheese.Same for Velveeta. Check this out: http://www.wisegeek.com/what-is-american-cheese.htm

Try to eat really good food, and not just lots of certain food you liked in your old life, or that you missed on P2. This is a NEW YOU coming about, so feed it well, and stick to the protocol. Best of luck!
