Reaching a plateau (or more than one) on the way to your weight-loss goal is to be expected. The task is to hold on to your motivation during a plateau. Legend has it that King Solomon had a ring made with a saying on it that would always be true: "This too shall pass." Make yourself a reminder of this, like the King's engraved ring. Because if you can wrap your mind around the idea that the plateau is temporary—and also normal—then you can hold on and get through it. It's the feeling that it will last forever that makes you want to give up.
Once again, remember: This too shall pass.
