Gaining weight even though cut calories and doing 5 sessions

Anyone else had anything similar?
I weight 141 lbs and have been on a strict 1200 cals and 4 sessions of personal training plus swims and classes and the scales are going the wrong way!

You probably need to start eating MORE because you exercise a lot. Read these threads:

I just started Boot Camp and I'm having the same problem. I'm freaking out and my trainer assured me that it will start to come off soon. I'm building muscle faster than I'm burning fat... but I feel your frustration. Grrr

Thanks for the replies. I got my trasiner ti do my bodyfat and thats gone from 33% to 31% so I guess something is working. i just need to get it out of my head that the scales matter!
