Working out, not losing weight but looking thinner?

You're probably gaining some in muscle. Muscle is more dense than fat, so you will look thinner if you trade fat for equal muscle mass. Also, I find that when I start working out, I gain a pound or so, and my appetite increases. But after about a week or so, after I've established a routine, I begin losing weight, as long as I keep it up. Your weight will naturally fluctuate as well, maybe by as much as 2 pounds, so this could be part of it, too. But I doubt the muscle mass gained is enough to offset the fat you're losing, if it's as noticeable as you say it is. I think if you give it more time, your weight will gradually start to decrease, as long as you're not reaching your minimum weight. Good job, keep it up!

You're just leaning out. Doing high cardio endurance training will help shed unwanted fat your body stores. It helps build your muscles and leans you out making you look thinner but not losing weight. In some cases you might even gain muscle weight.

You replaced fat with muscle. Muscle is denser and thus heavier but you require a lower amount to attain the same weight in fat. Result: same weight, thinner body, stronger legs.

When you work out you lose fat weight but earn that back in muscle weight. That's why.
