Cutting carbs out of your diet to control insulin levels doesn't always mean you will stop loosing and storing fat. Fat can still be stored without the presence of insulin. When you eat dietary fat there is an enzyme called chylomicrons which bind free fatty acids to a glycerol to produce tryclicerides TG. These chylomicrons make there way to fat cells to which a cheeky enzyme called acylation-stimulating protein (ASP) allows lipogenesis (fat storage) to take place This whole process is done without the presence of carbohydrates in your diet and the production of insulin through carbs. However, ASP has a number of physiological actions to which one of them is the ability to signal the pancreases to release insulin without the presence of carbohydrates, this is where high fat low/zero carb diets can become problematic.
