It could just be water retention. Did you eat anything particularly salty yesterday? Is it PMS time for you? I always gain a couple pounds when I'm PMSing, but it's not fat gain!
What is your workout like? If you are exercising intensely, you may need more than 1200 calories per day or your body will start thinking that it is starving and your metabolism will actually slow down, causing you to hold onto fat.

Many reasons come to mind. Here are a few
After 3 mos your metabolism has slowed and you need to exercise to boost it
After 3 mos you are slipping & not really eating 1200 calories a day
You are eating something you haven't before and it has more calories than you think.
You are retaining fluid.
You are exercising have put on muscle which weighs more. Do your clothes fit well or are they tight. If they fit, then probably not muscle weight.
Weigh & measue, keep a log of what you are eating and exercise. See if that makes a difference.

The body gains and loses up to 5 pounds daily because of normal diet and water consumption.
