Don't know. Can't review your diary and don't know your stats.

Remember how far you've come and stick with it! Some recommendations I've heard for busting through plateaus are having a few higher calorie days (where you're eating maintenance calories or a little over) or bumping up the intensity of your workouts. Haven't tried any of these personally, but they seem to work for others.

I assume you mean stuck at 15 lbs lost so far.

What is your weight loss goal on here set at? Lose 1 lb per week, 2 lbs per week? How many calories are you eating per day? Are you eating your exercise calories?

I would recommend, with only 5 more lbs to lose, set your goal to lose 1/2 lb per week. Heck, I'd even start eating at maintenance with only 5 more lbs to lose. You would be surprised how that can help some people lose those last few lbs.
