Oh I so understand this!! I can remember posting something similar to this last summer, so I went back and found it. It was in a thread about someone who was sick of the 180's, but to me the 180's sound like a fairytale as I was close to entering my dreaded 250's again:

I posted that on 7-1-09, but I didn't get out of the 250's back then. I let them get the best of me once again and I went off plan until the new year. On January 1st, I weighed almost 254, but I decided to give it a good shot and one day the scale said 249. Wowza! I realized then that I could do it; I didn't have to be stuck in any "decade" and I've made a lot of progress since.
So I hope you can find some motivation in this because I really felt the same way, you just have to keep going forward - you will break through!
Good luck!!!
