When you eat low-carb, your body depletes your glycogen stores (if you go as far as keto, you're emptying the glycogen and switching your metabolism to run on ketones). Every gram of glycogen is stored with 3-4g water. When one goes low-carb (especially coming from a high-carb diet) they will loose a LOT of weight quickly, but most of this is water weight, not body fat.

This progress was over 15+ months. I think by now the water weight should be gone ;) Also, as mentioned, I lost quite a bit of body fat too.
