So I have been working out consistently and eating healthy for the past three weeks ( i know it's not very long) but I lost 6 pounds, which I am happy with....but then gained 2 back. Could this be muscle mass?? I don't think it's fat...but then why the gain?

Good job so far! The 2 lb gain could just be hormonal, or water weight after a hard wokout. Remeber that time will tell so get off the scale for a week and stay on track with your meals and workout0

Usually, you lose water weight the first couple of weeks. It's a transient loss. 1-2 pounds a week is a good rate. One other reason may be that your weight just fluctuates a lot. Mine zig zags a couple pounds from day to day. It's normal.0

Could be ... but don't let it discourage you. Keep your eye on the goal - a healthier, happier YOU! Keep going!!!!0

Try not to look at the scale so much, I know it's hard but it could be muscle, water, harmones....
How are you feeling, do you feel like your getting tighter?0
