Confused at the pace of weight loss

I (32F) stepped on the scale today and was shocked to see that I had lost 15 lbs since the start of my weight loss journey 13.5 weeks ago. I started at 180, and today it read 165!!! My nutritionist put me on a 1500 cal/day goal, which I sort of followed inconsistently, but always managed to even out at the end of every week. (I travel a ton and it's really hard to be consistent sometimes.)

For so long, I was stuck around 175, and then for weeks I was oscillating between 172-175--I mean basically 6 whole weeks I just kept going up and down between these two weights. I noticed that my period would cause me to plateau, and then my exercising also seemed like it wasn't making any difference at all.

Then, suddenly, in the past two weeks, I dropped to 169 and then this morning, 165...how is that possible? I have not been starving myself. I guess I've been traveling a little less recently, and I've been able to keep consistent with exercise, but I don't exercise that much.

Does the body sometimes just hit a point where the weight starts dropping off super fast after months of relatively the same eating habits for some reason?
