Fat tissue grows bigger under the pressure of chronic hyperinsulinemia induced by chronic carbs ingestion. Cutting carbs will allow insulin to return to normal, but won't cause fat tissue to shrink back to its former size. Since insulin merely returns to normal, and there's no opposite pressure to cause fat tissue to shrink back to its former size, fat tissue will only shrink back to its new bigger normal size.

That could be 10% bigger or more. So for a former size of 30lbs of fat tissue, we'd end up with 33lbs of fat tissue. But most of us don't just weight 3 more lbs. We weigh 30-40-50 more lbs. So the effect of chronic hyperinsulinemia over the years is very significant.

Accordingly, to shrink back fat tissue to its former size, we have to do something just as effective. Short of going under the knife and having the fat tissue cut out of our bodies, there are ways to do that over time. However, the forum rules do not allow the discussion of these methods. The point is that these methods exist.

That's how I see it.
