Before I was going to study abroad in the Caribbean, I was desperate to lose some pounds before I was in a swimsuit for a month. I was doing intense cardio (45 minutes) and resistance training 4-5 times per week, and only eating 900-1000 calories per day. I couldn't lose a pound. I went to anutritionist and he upped my calories to 1200-1500/day, and bam! Lost 15 pounds before my trip. I suggest you track your calories to really see how much you're taking in, as compared to how much you're exercising. The shot could definitely me messing with your weight and/or water retention.. if you think you're holding water, trying increasing your potassium.
Good luck!
