The couple extra pounds of loss came right back when I wasn't living on caloric intake limited to what I could carry for the weekend.
Anyone else had a similar problem with a plateau point like this?
How did you get past it?
It's a prior setpoint. Once your body adapts, You'll start losing weight again. Just keep the caloric intake a bit below your activity level and eat the right kind of foods and you'll break the plateau by staying active.

It happens to everybody!
