Yes, sometimes calories can matter on a low carbohydrate diet if you have a significant degree of insulin resistance. Some people who have become very insulin resistant (many overweight people are insulin resistant without being aware of it) find that they reach a point in life where they need to count bothcarbohydrates and calories to produce weight loss.
