I feel that way all the time. It's been about 5 years of losing weight, over here.
My advice is to not let yourself get too frustrated and to set long term goals that allow you to have short term breaks. You might want to take a dieting break and work on strength or endurance events, for instance. Guys want to get bigger, but not all women want that.
It's been something of a roller coaster over the past three years, in particular. All in all, I'm heavier now (185 vs 160) than three years back, yet I'm a lot leaner than I was three years ago, too.
