Plateau week

After losing 10 pounds in a two week period; I have hit a plateau and only lost 2 pounds last week. Even though I didn't lose as much weight; I am feeling much better. The workouts are great an my trainer is great. I have a tendency to go all or nothing into one direction and I deprive myself of sweets until I end up binging. I decided on Friday that I would go ahead and have one of my favorite brownies. This put my mind at ease and I was able to only have the one that day. It feels good to be able to have on and just move on and continue a new way of life.I understand, from some research that I have done, that it helps to get over the plateau to relax a little on my eating. I think a lot of it is in my mind.
