Will my weight keep rising now that I'm eating?

Home More advice Nutrition & Fitness

Ok this is slightly complicated haha.

So I lost 20 pounds in an unhealthy way in the past couple months. (basically starvation) -- I've learned my lesson, so im better now

Mid august I was 130, my lowest point last month was 106 but usually stayed around 110

I've started eating again, at first I binged on not-so-healthy stuff, but only gained 2 or 3 pounds from that (ended up around 111-113)

Since then I've started exercising (hiit, lunges, cardio boxing, elliptical, jogging) and eating 3 healthy meals a day, averaging a little below 1000 calories (which I know is low, but I feel like im eating plenty! So im working on that)

Anyway, my weight has gone up to almost 120 (probably at 118?) quickly, and im wondering if its going to keep rising because of the starvation thing, or if its okay to assume some of that is muscle weight? Becuase im not eating junk food, and not eating that much, im really trying to do this healthily.

Does anyone have any information that would help me? Im scared that even though I'm eating well and exercising plenty that my weight is just going to keep going up :(
