This same thing happened to me! I tried the South Beach diet and lost 30+ lbs. Then the doctor sent me to a dietician, who was horrified about the diet and insisted I each a certain amount of carbs every day. I gained back every pound I lost, plus a few more. Very discouraging. I think this is when I gave up and went back to my old habits and started sliding into depression.
