    We need more info.

    how many calories do you eat a day?

    how many times a week do your workout and how many calories burned on average for each workout?

    Height, weight, age, body fat percentage if known...

    This info should let us help you.

    You can do it, you just have to make the decision that this is it, never going to diet again, from today on you will be living a whole new lifestyle, eatting right and moving. You do not need to do massive amounts of exercise, just do more than you did today. remember that weight loss happens in the kitchen and fitness in the gym. Best of luck to you, if you have time read through this it is great info that could help a whole lot.
    Here is good info:

    I think you are not eating enough - I plugged yoru numbers into a BMR calculator to estimate TDEE and it suggests at moderately active 3134 calories a day to maintain. So, in order to lose: 3134 - 20% = 2508 daily calories. Even at lightly active your number to lose weight would be over what you eat now by 100+ calories a day. I had to guess at some of the pieces (age, etc.), but this is just an example. You should definitely check your TDEE with all your numbers. Do your measurements and calculate your body fat percentage first because that number makes your BMR calculation more accurate (even though it is all estimates).

    Eating too little will cause a plateau every time. Best of luck to you!!
