Gaining weight, help needed.

Hello!!
Bit of a background story, after meeting mr fabulous I gained about 5 kilos. Not too bad considering all the eating out we were doing but still bad enough.
I was down to 76 kilos.
I was going to the gym 2-3 times a week and not really paying attention to what I was eating during the weight gain.
In the last few weeks I've gone back to my old routine, exercise a minimum 5 days a week burning between 400 - 700 calories a session. I'm eating 1500 calories per day and had increased this from 1200 a few months back.
I'm 5'5 and weight went up 400grams this fortnight to 82 kilos. I'm feeling a little devastated as I honestly feel leaner, I'm sure it could be muscle gain but I do need to be in a lower weight range for health reasons.
My end goal is 65 kilos, but I'm feeling that this is even not possible at this point.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks

Could also be water from muscle repair. Give it a week or two.0
