What do you think causes the weight gain (other than water)? There's little physiological effects of eating low carb that would trigger fat storage after leaving the low carb diet.
I can lose 5-8lbs going to a low carb diet, so when I stop, I put on 5-8lbs. But a regular (not low carb) diet would not have had the water loss, so I'd still be at the same level the days after the diet was "broken."
If the diet causes days of binging, then I can see some fat storage afterward, of course.
