Sticking on the Scale

I've been keeping up with how many weeks I stay at a certain range of weight. To help illustrate, let's say my starting weight was 158... then I would write down how many weeks I was in the 150s, then the 140s, then 130s, etc.

Up until now, the most I've stayed in a range has been 5 weeks.  That's happened twice.  The other ranges were like 3, 4 weeks each.  So, that goes to show you that I change dress sizes pretty often.  (Yes, clothes are a nightmare).  In two months, I can be 10-20 pounds lighter and the new pants I just bought seven weeks ago could now be pretty baggy.  

However, this last range has been sticking.  Really sticking.  I've been in this range for 8 weeks now.  Considering my success and history, that seems like forever.  And, these last few weeks have been depressing because my progress feels somewhat stalled.

Now, I do want to point out that in 8 weeks I have been losing.  It's not like I'm still at the top of the range.  I'm now at the bottom.  But, I'm still IN it.  Just sitting here.  Ready to move on.  And, I can feel the next range calling my name.
