Open Question: why have I stopped losing weight as fast, is it because Im gaining muscle or changing diet?

In highschool I was quite muscular but was still a little chubby I was around 210 pounds.its been about 3 and a half years and after university and 6 months of an office job ive lost a signifigant ammount of muscle and gained alot of weight got up to like 244 lbs

Something hit me and all of a sudden last month ive been going the gym 4 or 5 times a week for the last month, for the first like 2 and a half weeks though, all I was doing was going hard on cardio equipment and burning 500 calories every time I went. It seems like the first three weeks I was losing 2-3 pounds every week I’m now down to 237. However after the 2-3 weeks I began working an upper body muscle routine into my workout that I do about twice a week. However now, I don’t feel like I’m losing the weight as rapidly.

So my question is, what do you think the change in weight loss is related to,
is it possible that the muscle gain in lbs is as much as is close to what I’m losing in weight and so it seems like I haven’t lost any?

Another theory I had was that because when I first started I had changed my diet from fastfood extremely often like most days to healtheir choices (not extremely healthy but atleast homecooked meals) and maybe I was losing weight because of that, but now my body has adjusted to my new diet?
