How to break a while loop to another one?

Dear all,

I have 3 while loops inside each other. I want to break from the most inner one to the one before it.

For example:

   while count_A >100
              A = X  
                    while count_B >10
                           B = X
                                        while count_C >5
                                           C = X
                                            break
                                         end
                      end
   end

The break I show above will break the "while count_C >5" loop and start again from the first "while count_A >100",

but I want the loop to go the while count_B >10 once it breaks.

Any idea how to control this?

while outer test
  outer stuff
  quit_middle = false;
  while middle test
     middle stuff
     while inner test
       inner stuff
       if some inner reason
           quit_middle = true;
           break;
       end  %inner if
     end    %inner while
     if quit_middle; break; end
  end       %middle while
end         %outer while
