What's going on?
So, two weeks ago, I jumped on the scale and I was 163lbs. I worked out and eat well and the next week I went down to 160.8lbs. I was happy with that. I continued to eat well and go to the gym. Today I hopped on the scale and it said I was 163.6lbs. What is going on? I'm 6 months out. I eat anywhere between 600-850 calories a day. I go to the gym 3 times a week. I do 90 minutes of cardio and in addition to that, two of the 3 days, I do weight training with a personal trainer. Can someone give me a clue of what I'm doing wrong? I'm 20lbs away from my goal and I really want to make this happen. Please help!!!!

I think it's too soon to stress about this... I stall/bounce up ALL.THE.TIME. Some weeks I gain, others I drop 5lbs.
Be patient with your body, sometimes it just needs to adjust to everything that's going on. You can gain muscle/lose fat, lose inches (scale stays the same), be retaining fluids (or poo, LOL)... even hormonal things and sodium play a role.
Take a deep breath, some photos, and some measurements. It helps me when I can measure my progress in way OTHER than the scale.
