I think its because when one are fasting, plus under 20 grams per day
one is going into starvation mode, and the metabolism gets very slow, hence the calories that one is eating, the body will store from the threat of starvation so hence the weight gain. Enter exercise to increase the metabolism. If one has the energy to exercise ?
