I am really confused. I have been tonking the calories this week and see a fiddly little loss. I suppose it could be because I have started to exercise again and the running has probably built some muscle which has taken the edge off the loss. If I continue to exercise at this level then we will see next week.

It takes weeks/months of hard work to build muscle. When you first start an exercise program or change your current exercise, your muscles retain water to help them heal. This can show on the scale as a temporary gain, no loss or smaller loss than usual. It will go away when your muscles get used to the new exercise. Google "why the scale lies" for insight in to water weight fluctuations. Exercise burns calories, helps us lose fat and keeps our heart and body healthy. So don't stop. The scale eventually catches up. Some weeks the scale owes us, some weeks we owe the scale. Just keep consistent and keep going.
