Desperate Help please

I have tried alot of fad diets and finally came to conclusion of how to lose weight by healthy eating and excercise, thorugh this i lost 5 stone which i am chuffed with.
However, i've been trying to get he last half a stone off for about 3 months now with no luck. i was consuming 1500 calories a day and about 300 calories a day at gym lost about 2 pounds and got stuck on this.
Now i've been trying with 1800 calories and burning 500 at gym and still the exact same weight, its so upsetting because i really and trying and am getting go down about it.
Any help would be much appreciated.
oh i am 20 years old, weigh 66kg and am 5ft 7.

Thanks
Sam

I'd say i have a medium frame but i just want to lose a couple of pounds just to be in the lower side of the healthier weight ( so there's a bit more to play with if you know what i mean)

Thank you for that information though, i was not aware of the different weights for frames

Many Thanks
Sam

At 5'7", your 66 kg is not overweight........ 66kg = 145.2; you are not over weight, unless you have a very small frame.  A quick search brings up this information for you:

Height                                 Small Frame              Medium Frame           Large Frame
5'7"                                         123-136                     133-147                     143-163

I'm not sure why you want to lose weight.
