For about the past month I have been focused on building muscle and have, however I have also gained fat at the same time. So how if possible, can I build muscle and lose fat at the same time?

Yes, of course. :) Try changing your diet. Limit fats and eat lots of protein. Drink lots of water, 8 glasses, everyday. If you are eating right, and doing cardio as well as strength training (building muscle), you will build muscle, and lose fat. But don't be tricked! Muscle weighs more than fat, so if you are gaining weight, it doesn't necessarily mean you are getting fatter. When your muscles get bigger, so does the number on the scale. If you can, have a doctor measure the amount of body fat on your body. At a later time, the amount of body fat may be less, but your weight can and most likely will be more (if you've gained muscle).
Good luck!

Exercise causes you to gain muscle weight. If you gain muscle Weight and your weight stays the same you have lost an equal amount of fat.

Well, if you lift weights then are lazy for the rest of the day and sit on a chair eating chips then ya you should get fat. What i would do is stop watching tv ,and go walking more, well don't not watch tv because thats impossible just watch like two or three hours a day.

to be technical the answer is yes...
if you are a newbie to resistance training it is easier to do. the problem is that to gain muscle you need an excess of calories and to lose a significant amount of body fat you have to decrease calories and/or increase your daily caloric expenditure.
it is much easier to do one or the other...gain some mass then do a short period of dieting down to keep body fat levels under control.
do some research on Periodization training principles...

Yes - but it requires intense thinking so the fat does not collect in the head area (between the two ears). Just kidding, but are you trying any metabolic products like ripped fuel - supplements should give you what your looking for.

Change your exercise routine. Add more cardiovascular exercise. You can still weight train. Just jog, bike, swim, or something like that also
