My “stubborn” mom is again having renewed interest in miracle diets which she hoped to bring back her old figure of 36″-25″36″.  But haven’t she realized that at her age of 51 and  having given birth to us her 3 children, it is next to impossible??  I have bore witnessed to her endless quest to reduce her weight.  She tried tae-bo, yoga, aerobics and gym … quite successful because she initially she lost few pounds but when she stopped the program, it was disastrous… she gained more than she have lost!  She also have tried the “wonder” drugs… fad diets, diet pills, slimming tea but to no avail.   Dad supported her whims.. treadmill, stationary bike, sauna suit, portable sauna.. hmmm.. what else?   The only thing she have not tried yet is interventional… good that she is afraid of surgery for if not, I guess she will also tried liposuction, gastric staple (?)… errr.. alien sounding procedures to me.

Mom is not obese but vanity is eating her up… her weight is about 10 kilos heavier (she is about 65 kilos now ) but to my Dad she looked alright but she would not believe us even though we told her many times that she is not that fat.  The latest that I’ve heard was she is trying the last fad – the slimming coffee!   She would give me feedback that the pounds are slowly and steadily climbing down the scales just by drinking coffee alone…

Alright, I will give her the benefit of the doubt.   We will see if this time her fats will be melted away by drinking coffee.  As long as she is happy and it will not jeopardize her health… go Mom… I know that there will come a time that you will realize that the 36″-25″36 figure is a thing of the past….

Stop dreaming will yah!  (lol)

I found out that she is using this.. I can’t say much about the product… actually I am not posting this to advertise or endorse.. it is only my Mom who can give testimonies about this (hopefully if she will lose weight).
