I need advice, recommendations ...

for breaking a plateau AND the head hunger that has just returned. I'm 7 months post-op, down 95lbs and 20 - 25 from goal weight. This is only my 2nd. plateau. I finally dropped below 150lbs. a week and 1/2 ago, and the scale hasn't moved since then. I'm also currently doing battle with head hunger, and it's winning at the moment. It's driving me nuts. I have NO physical hunger. I'm never hungry, thank you God, but this head hunger has come back in the last week & 1/2 and I can't stand it. I know it's being made worse by the plateau... that's depressing me. I'm grateful for what I've lost so far. I'm thankful I haven't been a slow loser, but still. I need suggestions for getting off the plateau and for combating this miserable S.O.B, head hunger. It is evil. Any advice? Should I give protein shakes only for a couple days a shot? I already exercise 6 - 7 days a week. I know I've been consuming more calories than normal (probably 1000-1200) per day. Is that a good thing or a bad thing. Help, please!
