Gain weight after workout?

Simrashah

Hi
I have been gaining weight instead of losing . My week plan is 2 days salad and the rest of the days normal food but the calorie intake is limited to 1200. I do treadmill or cardio 3/4 times a week and burn 2000 calories.

Before the above plan I followed the fast weight loss in one week plan which suggested the dietary chart and the cardio(slim in 6 plan) I did lose weight but it was just 2 kg.( this time weight was 63 kg lost 2kg and it came down to 61kg)

Now I have gained weight, it is 65kg. My target weight is 56kg.

I have been trying to loose weight for a year. I started from 61kg ,my weight fluctuates a lot and instead of losing I am continuously gaining.

Can you please suggest what could be the reason

Please share your views and help me to achieve my target

Thank you, this information about the water retention is very helpful. I pushed myself really hard in a new workout yesterday, ate right (under goal calories), woke up giddy to see what the scale would say. Was SOOO discouraged when I was up a pound. Happy to see that this may be just water...going to keep pushing forward.
