Mind days of the week when comparing weight - Wednesday to Wednesday, Friday to Friday, etc.

Also, I'm feeling a bit weaker, too. I'm using the low end of the CKD parameters sheet. I sure as heck don't want to gain weight, and I don't think it's possible to gain 2lbs of LBM in a week! LOL... wouldn't THAT be nice! So I'm wondering if I didn't do something right and put on fat? Man, that would suck big time.

Since intramuscular glycogen and water count as LBM, it is possible to "gain" 2 lbs LBM a week. It's another story that it may well be gone by next week.
To put on 2 lbs of fat you'd have to have overeaten 7000 calories. Have you done that?

Up the carbs - more energy, slower fat loss
Up the protein - same energy (more or less), slower fat loss
Up the fat - more energy IF you're in ketosis, same fat loss IF you're in ketosis AND calories are not too high.
In other words, pass on the carbs and try increasing fat/protein ratio without changing the total calories.
