    You're not eating enough. Eat more. You're not at a plateau - you're starving yourself.
  • Switch up the workout (if you aren't already) even if it's only a little bit here and there, it will make a difference.
    Also, you should look at some HIIT workouts those will help a lot if you don't do them to often.
