going up instead of down

Today has been week since I have started using MFP (well been using it for a while but religously for 1 week) I was so excited to weigh myself today and to my diappointment have gained a pound. I dont know where I went wrong I used to eat all the crap I wanted and worked out maybe 3 times a month and wouldn't gain a pound. Not losing any the first week I could understand but gaining, not cool. Thoughts????

    yes and I quit smoking a week ago but I've been eating less so not really sure if that has anything to do with it or not
