It's very much a YMMV process, dependent on individual factors and metabolic idiosyncrasies.
Your liver may or may not hoard glucose from every carb you consume. It may take many weeks for it to get to the point where it stops gleefully dumping it's EXTRA stores when it believes you need it, whether or not it's true.
So while I've been in ketosis pretty consistently for many months, I don't see extreme changes in weight or waist unless I make sure I'm in DEEP ketosis.
You can be in ketosis and your liver can still have stores to dump. (Dawn phenomenon is a perfect example.) Any time you eat carbs, your body may decide to store it for future use, or use it immediately. It all depends on what your system does.
