Please help...so upset that I've gained...Need advice

Let me start off by saying my weight loss has been wonderful. I have lost 136 lbs in 11 mo. I have hit a few minor plateau's along the way but nothing too bad. I am a firm believer in making your tool work for you. Now, last week I lost 5-6 lbs in about 8-9 days which is very unusual at this stage of the game. This week I've gained 4 lbs. As many of you longer posties know it is such a mind trip gaining ANY weight. I live by the rules...high protein, low to moderate carbs. I usually eat every 3 hours or so with 1-2 of those meals/snacks being a protein shake. My carb intake is usually below 50g per day. My protein is usually about 100g per day. I have recently incorporated exercise into my day. I bike ride 5-6 miles in the am and on alternating days I will walk 3 miles. I don't know if that could account for any of my weight gain. I guess what I'm looking for is if anyone else has gone through this and if it just passed if you stuck to your correct eating regimen. I'm also looking for any suggestions or constructive critisism on my diet/exercise. Thanks for reading this long post. I try not to ask for help too much unless I really need and this has me stressing so badly. I can handle a plateau as I know they're normal but I cannot handle gaining weight. Thanks again everyone.
