Default Lost more muscle than fat! Anyone do an ELG before and after induction?

On Oct. 9, 03 my dietician and I did an ELG, electrolipograh, and I went on induction. I started with a fat fast of two days then went on to eat 60/40 protien/fat and less than ten grams carbs daily. I did this for four weeks. I then went to thrity grams carbs and maitained the 60/40 protien/fat. For excercise I walked two miles twice daily and during my work day I usually put in two miles easy. We did another ELG on Jan. 9, 04 The good news is I lost thrity pounds during the time, that bad news is 25 pounds was muscle and only 5 was fat. Howesver, my body composition stayed the same, 76% lean body mass, 24? body fat.

Has anyone else have similar results? Has anyone done an ELG before and after induction to see just how much of thier loss was actually fat?
