I've read about this once. According to the book, when you're on Atkins, you don't necessarily lose fat. Instead, you lose muscles and water more which are responsible for your immediate weight loss. You gain fat quickly because once you lose your muscle, you decrease your metabolism and then you gain fat more quickly.
