I have just started exercising again. This happens to me all the time.
I was my skinnyest when I dont exercise. When I exercise I start
gaining. Especially around my stomach. I am not fat but afraid of
getting there. I walk on a treadmill 5 days a week and lift weight
lightly 5 days week.

I am wondering if burning more calories puts a person in "starvation
mode" and the body starts converting things to fat? I hate to give up
exercising.

I have been following a high protein/low carbohydrate diet for awhile
now and it has worked good for me untill I started exercising again.

Exactly what is your weight gain over what time period?
