    I would seriously start thinking and looking into macronutrients. I can see from them at the bottom of the page in your diary your eating lots of carbohydrates and not a lot of protein.

    Consider altering your diet to consuming more protein and less carbohyrates... I can't see a lot of complex carbs in there, lots of simple carbs and sugars and salts.

    Add more vegetables and fruits, add more lean meats, ditch the bad fats (trans and saturated fats) and do some kind of exercise each day and you'll see faster and healthier results.

    Not to mention your muscles will also retain water after you workout.

    How long since you started lifting? Are you using a food scale?

    Are you quite new to lifting?? I evened out for a few weeks when I first started lifting but then the scales started going down again.

    At the end of the day, as long as you maintain a reasonable deficit and keep at it, the weight will come off. You're doing great so far, well done!!
