Lactose Intolerance and Weight Gain

About a year ago, I became severely lactose intolerant. I only ate about 1000 calories (if I was lucky) per day for about three months. I lost probably about 15 pounds. I then finally figured out what I could eat and started eating a much more normal 2000 calories a day. I then not only gained the weight I lost back, but I gained an extra 25 pounds over the course of about 6-8 months. Is this normal? Is this a result of starvation mode or my body still adjusting to the intolerance?
