Advice needed please

Hi Peeps,

I started the gym just over three weeks ago as i wanted to loose weight and tone, i got my weigh and measure last night to find i lost an inch off my hips and an inch off my waist, gained half an inch on my calf and put 2lb on in weight, my instructor says this extra 2lb is muscle as all other measurements are the same. I am going to lack off the stepper and things that are going to do my muscles and concentrate more on sit up's and running and the isotronics for my inner thighs, how can i loose weight as well as going to the gym to keep fit, i want to be thinner as well as more toned, any suggestions please?????
