By that I mean, once you have lost your initial weight, then start switching back to adding carb in, you have kept losing the weight or stabilized without gaining it all back?

My guess is you can do this, by raising up your activity level, and moderation.

You are going to carb-rebound to an extent. Its not actual fat or muscle gain however. For ever 1 gram of carb you intake your body will retain 2.7 grams of water.
