Exercise and calorie expenditure constant through both WOEs
August 12, 2019 - Feb 29, 2020

WOE 1. August through Dec, 2019 (restricting carbs)
** eating meat, dairy, cheese, avocado, eggs
** No bread, pasta, rice, sugar, grains, nut butters, honey
OUTCOME, lost 20 lbs.

WOE 2. January - Feb, 2020, (reversed WOE, favored carbs)
** eating bread, pasta, rice, nut butter, honey, sugar (donuts)
** Restricting meat, dairy, cheese, avocado, eggs
OUTCOME, gained 8 lbs.

Analysis.
No. more carbs do not equal weight gain
Yes. more calories equal weight gain

During the (2) months I was eating bread, pasta, rice, sugar, donuts, peanut butter + honey I showed a tendency to eat on the average 600 more calories per day than the (4) months with lower carbs.

Conclusion.
Carbs (especially sugar) trigger more eating for me, they are not as satiating as more dense calories in meats, dairy, eggs, avocado.
174.0 lb Lost so far: 11.0 lb.    Still to go: 2.0 lb.    Diet followed reasonably well.

What were the protein numbers? Also, at least half of that gain would be regain of water weight from going from low to high carb.

Yes, and what are/where the carb numbers? Why only 2 months in one WOE and 4 months in the other. Interesting info for sure! Thanks Dawg! Have a Gin And Juice on me! 👍
