Hitting a plateau is often an easier way of saying "I've not adhered to my diet properly for a while and haven't been seeing results so there must be another reason for it".

OR

You have adhered to your diet and genuinely haven't been seeing results and can't figure out why. 
Usually people throw in the towel before waiting it out and seeing the results after 2-3 weeks. They'll revert to their old ways as they are disheartened and then start from scratch again when they feel like it. 
Or maybe they try to counter act the 'plateau' by drastically dropping calories and increasing training but don't realise this is only exacerbating things and I'm going to explain why in this episode.
