Maintenance Stage
HW : 67 kg
LW : 52.8 kg
CW: 54 kg
Good evening OMADers
I weighed myself this morning and I am 54kg. Not too happy with it though but I guess I will just have to work harder to get down to 52-53 region. Maintenance stage is hard, I tell ya. I think I should weigh every day so that I know if I am gaining. The number on my scale will definitely put me in my place as I am crazy over numbers.
So, everyone has an official Before & After photo, right? I guess this will be mine then.
I am trying to be around the 53 region and somehow, I still hope to see 52 on my scale as my lowest weight was 52.8kg. I am trying to love myself at this weight but Mom texted me this morning and said that since my thyroid cancer is Stage 0, I should loose more weight so that if I do faint, I can be easily carried by DH. DH was with me when I received my text and he took a photo while carrying me with one hand and text message Mom back. Thank goodness, Mom & her sisters are in HK and we will be in QLD for a small vacation.
Hope that everyone will be having a wonderful Friday!
Have a wonderful weekend, you guys!

For me maintenance was easy at first but then I started getting too comfortable and started not weighing myself and that was a big mistake. After I get these last few pounds back off I will be weighing myself a lot, not everday but at least twice a week. I hope it gets easier for you.
DO NOT listen to your mother!!! You look amazing just the way you are2 -
That was a horrible thing for your mother to say. As long as you and the hubby are happy no one else really matters. You are healthy and you look great. Try not to let her get to you. I loved your husband’s response.1

OMG I'm so sorry you have to deal with that - Apologies, but I have NO PATIENCE for people like that. Get your own life, lady - I'm just over here being FABULOUS (that's my mental wish for a response from you to your mother LMAO). Your hubby is SO SWEET for his response - sounds like you got a great guy
GOOD LORD WITH THAT WEATHER!!! BLECH! I'll take the cold over that kinda heat every day of the week
Cedric's family doesn't really "family" in the traditional way - I've literally never even met his sister (granted she's in Dallas LOL) - and I haven't seen his mom in person in, I dunno, years? They don't do anything w family for the holidays, or pretty much otherwise. It's also why he struggles so much with understanding why my family gets upset if they don't see him for long periods of time and why he doesn't feel the need to be involved w family events basically AT ALL - it's one of our biggest struggles because my mom is basically my best friend, and we're a very tight-knit family...we fight like cats and dogs sometimes, but we're all in each others business good or bad...Cedric can't really handle that and it's tough *sigh*2 -
Parents can be so cruel with their comments. I just emigrated overseas and pretty much went no contact for about 40 years. Now my dad is 90 and staring at eternity we’re good.
The fact is that you have worked hard to achieve your health goal, setting yourself up for years of good health and happiness. This is a blessing to yourself and your entire family.1 -
Ugh. I'm so sorry your mom is like that. I know you're used to it, but it still sucks.
You look amazing. You've come so far and you definitely are tiny now.
Keep doing what you've been doing and keep being the amazing person you are.2 -
@Brendalea69 - Thank you It have got used to Mom...she has been like so since I was young. However, sometimes, I still get p**t over it I tell ya, maintenance seems to be hard for me I think by weighing myself each morning, it helps me to ensure that I don't gain too much weight1
-
@LadyBlanks - Thank you No worries as Mom is like that since eons ago. When DH first met her, OMG, he just couldn't stand her Now, DH is very quick in responding to her Oh well...0

@mistymeadows2005 - Thank you I always envy those like you my dear who is best friends with your Mom. But, no worries... got used to Mom Been with DH for more than 23 years0
-
@LiLee2018 - Thank you Yes, I got used to it. I think most Asian Moms are like that and we the children will just get used to it0

Good evening OMADers
Happy New Year 2020 to each and everyone of you here
We had a wonderful vacation in Qld. It took us 2 days to drive up there though. We had to stop at Dubbo for a night and continue the next day. Our kids really love their vacation as they loves it when its the only 4 of us
In Qld, we managed to get an apartment which was close to Seaworld, Movieworld and Wet & Wild. They had lots of fun of course but DH and I were mostly waiting for them to finish their rides as we are just too old for those rides... The kids gave 10/10 for their holiday in Qld.
As for OMAD, it went down the drain for the whole week. I tried very hard to eat OMAD but without being at home and walking like a mad woman, my stomach was growling and I ended up eating 2 meals a day. DH said that I should just call it a "Cheat Week". Oh well, now that I am back home, its back up onto the wagon and OMAD again. Didn't weigh myself as I know I have gained a lot of weight. So, I might weigh myself next week and start from there. So, I am now on "loosing weight" mode. Let's do this!
Hope that everyone had a wonderful Christmas & New Year celebration!
Take care and hugs to all

Your vacation sounded like so much fun!!! Back to losing mode for us all1

It sounds like you had a great time.
I didn't get to respond on your mom but I would say what Steph said get on with your life and get over her, sorry that is harsh but that was very rude what she said to you. But your hubs was great defending you so you just be you.
Your pics looked amazing, just amazing....1 -
So glad you had an AMAZING vacation!! We're all back on the wagon...c'mon in the water's fine1
