Actually, I think that the low-fatters "caught up" because the low-carbers were gaining muscle weight, which slowed their downward trend on the scales, in addition to the low-fatters losing muscle weight. Most all of us have noticed that our muscle mass (strength) increases with low-carbing -- sometimes even without much or any exercise depending on the shape we were in when we started. |
