Gained the weight back

I started this journey in June, and in the first two and a half months I lost five pounds. Since then I haven't lost anything, and now I've realized I've gained the weight back. I'm going home today for the first time since I left for college this year, and my family's going to see that I look square again. Any advice on how to regroup after gaining back all your progress? Maybe I've set the wrong goals for myself?

    Your family probably won't notice 5 pounds. If you want to lose weight, eat at a deficit.

    Yeah you are just going to have to see where you went wrong, it could be too little or too many calories, maybe you should add exercise, figure out your macros etc.
