  • Could be muscle growth, or possibly water retention. If you have been following your intake plans I highly doubt you have gained anything but possibly more muscle. I would not worry about it :). Keep at it and you should see more appealing results.

    It's most likely just water weight. It takes 3500 cals above maintenance roughly to gain 1lb of fat in a week so unless you've eaten that much it's not going to be fat.
    Did the weigh in the same time of day both time? This really matters. If you weigh in once a week, first thing in the morning, before you've eaten anything and after the bathroom it should be an accurate reflection of weight lost. Also, especially watch your sodium the day before weigh in,
