4 week stall...UGH

Good morning & happy new year all!

Sooooo...got on the scale today (which btw I am always a but paranoid about), and I've gained 2 lbs! WTH?? I started soft foods the day after Christmas and honestly I struggle with getting in 2 ounces! I found this Protein drink in a convenience store called Core Power (26gm of protein) and have been having one here & there but I'm also concerned that many foods have high doses of sodium and wonder if this has something to do with the gain? I've been adding ham to my scrambled eggs (I might eat 1-2 tbsp) but this is frustrating!! I joined a gym and have been doing the treadmill & recumbent bike.

Can anyone offer suggestions on this? I read it's normal to have a stall but I'm not liking this.

Thank you

    I'll chime in at 9 weeks. My weight has gone up 1-2 pounds several times; almost always followed by a drop of 2-3 pounds. There are 100 reasons this could be happening: salt intake, increased exercise

Thank you fluffnomore...what a roller coaster ride!!

Today the scale went back down 3 lbs! WTH???

Just reporting back, because it's crazy. This morning's weight was 193.6, a new low…so obviously I did not lose almost 5 pounds in one day. I think it's so important for me to keep perspective about this. These are snapshots, nothing else.
