Leptin is a hormone that is involved in fat formation. It is made by fat cells and then acts on the hypothalamus to decrease the appetite and increase fat-mobilizing hormones such as the thyroid hormone. 

Too LITTLE leptin in the body will cause cells to hold on to the fat. This is why excessive dieting can result in people being unable to lose weight.  The body goes into starvation mode, due to low leptin,  and the body will hold on to every calorie.  

Leptin levels are lowered when carbohydrate intake is low, so do not completely drop carbohydrate from your diet.
