Don't rely on the scale... try using a tape measure... you may notice some changes in your body's appearance and shape...

Good move shene. Forget the scale and take tims advice. If you put on muscle, then surely the weight will go up and the fat goes down. Then the tape measure tells you the truth!

Are you weighing yourself at the time time everyday? This can also have a big impact. Also your hydration can impact heavily. For example of you have a big glass of water, you can increase your weight by a pound.
My favorite indicator is simply who my clothes fit on me. When I am training well, my pants are loose around my waist, yet my shirt gets tighter across the chest and arms.

I'm not sure what program you chose, but most likely you are replacing fat with muscle. Muscle weights more than fat, which would explain why you weight more than before you started.
