help me get over this plateau

I lost 13lbs in the first 2 weeks and was really happy. I'm know just going into week 6 and can't seem to lose anymore. In total i have lost 20lbs, i only have 5 left to lose but cant. i do 30 minutes cycling and 20 mins weights most days. i have not been hungry recently so a regular day is, decaf tea, small salad and an omelette with chix,onion and cheese. i am also just drinking water. i dont know what else to do as i am already only eating one meal a day and exercising. any advice would be great.!! i have 3 weeks left until i go on holiday and would love to lose those extra lbs by then.

as much as i should. the trouble is i dnt get hungry and just feel like i'm
eating for the sake of it. also worried if i start eating more i'll
put them pounds back on. Thanks for your advice and support.
I think we should try to take a lesson from little kids - they eat when they're hungry, grazing through the day on small amounts. They need to be guided to the best food choices (requiring parents with infinite patience to keep trying to get them to choose the good stuff most often) and that's where things can get dicey, especially as kids get older and more opinionated about what they like and don't like or are more exposed to the junk that gets pushed through television, through vending machines, or on the lower shelves at the grocery stores.
Just food for thought on a Friday afternoon after lunch....
Just wondering. Do you take measurements? You might be gaining a little muscle wieght. Hmmmmm... what does everyone else think?
