A member asked:
I''ve restricted my calories and worked out a lot for 6 mnths.is there any way to increase my intake without gaining weight/fat(reverse diet) and how?

No: your weight will always be related to how many calories you take in versus how many you burn up. If you want to increase your intake of calories, you will have to do more exercise to burn the extra calories, otherwise you will gain weight.
