Really sounds like you lost a ton of weight on a low-carb, low-fat & high protein diet, but didn't pay attention to what is recommended by everyone 'in the know' : do refeeds /free meals in order to keep metabolism humming (apparently you ate so little, you still kept losing & have a solid metabolism) as well as keep your strength.
Why didn't you ask for help when you saw strength plummeting? I mean.. it's not like waking up one day and see your strength drop off all of a sudden?
Too late now, but like Roland said, it's possible to start gaining back strength and maybe go on a maintenance mode for a while. First gains are probably water weight gains, but if you calculate your calories from what they used to be and start adding 100-250kcal/week from there.. you should be at a much better place within a few months, both strength-wise and ability to maintain on a higher calorie intake..
