2 Month Plateau

Okay, just seeing if anyone has any ideas I haven't thought of or already been told, because this is getting old!
I've only been at it for 5 months and lost 27 lbs, really not bad. But I hit 27 lbs over 2 months ago. The holidays didn't help, but I've amped up my exercise, and cut my calories back further. I'm eating 300 less than recommended and I burn 500-1500 a day 5 days a week. I eat mostly healthy foods. I do screw up a day or two a week and go over my calories, but MOST of the time, my calories burnt are still above what I've eaten. As a rule, I try not to eat those exercise calories, though. I've had more bad days than I should of late, and I know I need to work out my food a little more--but with over 12K burned in the last two weeks and having a net calories still below my goal--I haven't lost a pound. NOTHING.
I'm not giving up, by any means, but it is frustrating, and I'll change whatever I need to...
