Default I'm ready to give up!!!

I've about had it! I've been in what I think is a true stall and don't know what to do. I knew this would be the place to turn for help.
During Christmas I gained about 4-5 pounds due to holiday eating. After the holidays, I knew how to fix it and within a few days I was back on track and had lost those 5 pounds. Stuck at 225 lbs. I knew it was temporary and lost a few inches during the first 10 days of January. Then nothing---
Stayed at 225 throughout January and 2 weeks into February. Went out of town and of course gained 3 pounds. Right back on track, lost those 3 pounds within 2 days and stuck at 225 again. And there I've been since the 16th of February. No inches, no pounds.
Typical meal plan---2-3 scrambled eggs for breakfast 1 16 oz coffee w/cream & sf Vanilla syrup Lunch--spinich salad w/ranch dressing and some sort of protein (chicken,beef,tuna etc whatever's leftover from dinner) Dinner--salad and/or mixed veggies, protein (same as lunch) and sometimes a mock danish for dessert later in the evening. I've been on the plan long enough to know what veggies and proteins are "legal" and 99% of the time stay within those guidelines.
Water throughout the day--I have never measured it but know it's at least 60-80 oz per day. I'm really getting discouraged and am turning to you all for help. What am I doing wrong----
