    Sounds like you are not eating enough. If you are a male, 12-1500 cals may be far too low. Calculate your BMR and aim to eat (at least) that every single day. There are plenty of calculators online, or even use my fitness pals one.
    The normal weightloss chart looks very normal- I experience more extreme spikes and dips than that.
    Weight is only a number- you should focus on muscle gain and fat loss instead.

    my BMI is 35+ so i have to do it.

    I used to have a BMI of 48 so I know that feeling....
    Honestly your body will lose weight by eating more. Calculate your TDEE online and subtract 500-750 kcals from it... Thats what you should aim for each day.

    Look up a thread by Vismal--"From obese to 6 pack abs--ask me anything!" He will give you some great advice.

    This is all good news. The sudden weight gain is water weight not fat gain. The water weight will come back off on its own.

    You can eat a little bit more and still lose weight. As a side bonus, you will stop having dizzy spells.
