It is difficult to determine whether your weight loss is fat or muscle. You should be able to tell whether weight loss was water in a few days. If you follow a sensible diet and the weight comes back on, it was probably just water. As for muscle versus fat, be sure you are following an exercise regime that includes weight-bearing exercises to minimize your muscle loss.

What is the difference between weight loss and fat loss?

Weight loss can include anything that make you weigh less on the scales including losing weight in water, lean muscle mass and fat. What you really want to lose is fat, while gaining lean muscle mass to keep your metabolism going. If you drink enough water, your body will stop hoarding water for future use and you will lose some water weight. So losing water weight and fat is a good thing (obviously as long as you don't dehydrate), but you really do not want to lose muscle mass.
