HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
It is very good that you are currently exercising. If you are doing more strength training than aerobic, it is possible that some of the increase in weight may be due to an increase in muscle mass.
If you are using non low calorie fruit drinks then they would also have an impact on your weight.
I hope this helps
