Fat or muscle loss?

So as of recent I have had to take 3 weeks off from my training in order to prevent myself from further injury.
Just before I stopped training I weighed in at 83.2kg.
Last night was my first night back in the gym, i felt good and decided to weigh in.
I weighed in at 78.2kg.
I am wondering if this is fat or muscle loss, or even if its more my muscles don't have the same capacity as they did to store water?
 
That's a big loss in three weeks I would put allot of it down to fluid. If you can't workout at least give your body the protein it needs to maintain muscle.

If you were taking creatine then i would say just water weight. Otherwise it would be both but more on the muscle side.
