Does Dieting Lead To Weight Gain?

Yes. Under certain circumstances, repetitive dieting may lead to weight gain.
 
We Don't Just Lose Fat
Typically, when we reduce energy-intake (by following a calorie-controlled diet) and increase energy expenditure (by taking extra exercise), we create a calorie-deficit and thus lose weight. This weight loss typically comprises fat, but includes a small proportion of muscle tissue as well.
