Camera jumping to final position despite regulating speed.

So I've just begin coding in Unity and am having an issue with getting my camera to scroll across a text box. The lower bound for my camera (x-axis) is -6.16 (set by me in the scene) and the upper bound is 12.56. Here is the attached code I am using to animate the camera :

 void Start () 
 {
             Debug.Log ("Animation started.");
 }
 public int enter = 1;//Just to ensure that the loop isn't entered once again after the main camera reached 12.56
 void Update ()
 {
             //Lower bound : -6.16 (x)
             //Upper bound : 12.56

             if (enter == 1)
             {
                     while (this.transform.position.x<12.56)
                     {
                     
                             this.transform.Translate (0.02f, 0, 0,Space.Self);
                             Debug.Log (this.transform.position.x);

         
                     }
                     enter++;
             }

 }

}

When I hit play, the Main Camera 'jumps' from -6.16 to 12.56 on the game window and just stops there. On the other hand the Debug.Log command shows me all values between -6.16 and 12.56 and the positions where I would except my camera to be.

Looking forward to your suggestions.

Thanks
