Sadly either you have added fat or their scales are wrong
It is difficult to add muscle , it is exceptionally difficult to add muscle and lose fat
Of course both are possible with correct training sleep and diet
At 40 your ability to add muscle in slabs diminishes unless on juice
Natural 5 kg of muscle in 2 months is very unlikely even with good training good genetics and good diet
Even less likely with a calorific deficit
As you suggest fat is less dense than muscle and thus for you to have lost fat you would have needed to add even more than 5kg in muscle , bearing in mind how doubtful adding 5 kg in 2 month adding more is even less plausible
Unless you are experienced measuring or gauging body fat is difficult
Working out eating better food will add volume to muscle(water glycogen) which in turn will give an impression of definition or fat loss
Ironically many body sculptors lose definition during a cut due to glycogen(carbohydrate) depletion
I can make my muscles grow and add over 3 kg in 2 days when going from carb free to carb loaded but zero muscle is added
So unless your aim is to fatten up , either the scails are wrong or you're eating too much for your goal xxxxx |

I know I've lost body fat as it is noticeable and I am now a 32 waste, before I was 34. I did need a massive poo when I weighed myself so maybe I should weigh myself again now I don't? |

"If you haven't gained any body fat, then water is the only thing that would account for that much extra weight, some could be muscle, but not 5kgs."
I do drink a lot of water so should have much water retention...  |

I eat less calories than I burn for sure. That's the only logical explanation... the scales are wrong! |

"Need a food diary start weighing your food so your calorie intake is 100% accurate trust me putting on muscle and losing fat gets extremely difficult in you 40s.

Yeah I think I'll do a diary. I don't eat a great deal tbh... |
