Lost weight but look bigger?

So I'm on some medication (three to be exact) which all cause weight gain.
I look bigger around the belly area and have some stretch marks showing, however my scales say I have lost weight.
Has this happened to anyone else? Could be it muscle wastage due to the meds, but putting on as fat now instead of muscle weight?
