[QUOTE="Brunneria, post: 562375, member: 41816"] It's because your body produces so much insulin - being a reactive hypoglycaemic. I have/had the same problem. Something similar happens to type 1s when they use too much insulin. It is a well known anecdote that going on to insulin causes weight gain. Also one of the reasons that undiagnosed type 1s lose so much weight - very little insulin present. You may well find that the longer you low carb, and the less insulin you produce, and the fewer hypos you have, the easier it is to lose weight. Me? I only lose weight in ketosis (very very low carbing) any more carbs than that and the weight just sits there - regardless of calories, because carb eating leads to insulin, leads to glucose being taken out of bloodstream and deposited as body fat.
