    Firstly your weight can be up and down 2 lbs easily in a day, so one viewpoint is that your weight didn't actually change.

    Personally I would try either dieting or exercising for two weeks and see what happens, you can add the other one in later as a separate trial but if you do two things at once it's hard to separate cause and effect.
