Just checking in to say Hello to everyone. This morning the scale said 116.8 lbs.  This is the lowest weight I've been since April, and I'm very pleased about it.  Especially since my calorie count has been about the same, ...which of course is really very low... and I haven't been exercising.

The only thing I'm doing different right now is my zero wheat experiment.  I've having some veggies and fruit, and even had some potato chips, so my carbs aren't super-low, ...that is...not super-low when we consider my calorie count totals. 

It looks like this house repair, construction guy intrusion, is going to go on for a couple more weeks. My little repair job is the kind that the construction company schedules in between other bigger jobs, so it's hit and miss, here and there, which I find difficult.

This past week, I've also been putting in 12 to 15 hour days on my computer dealing with small technical details on my videos which are stored on the companion Diethobby YouTube channel. Tech things to do with YouTube navigation and rating issues etc.  It isn't that technically difficult, but it involves hitting the keys over and over and over and over and over and over for hours and hours and hours and hours.

I've become obsessed with getting that organizational detail done, and hopefully after a couple of more days,  I'll have accomplished it.
 
 I'm also spending a lot of time as the YouTube Grandma answering the comments and questions of people
who are visiting the DietHobby channel.  I've noticed some new registrations here at DietHobby.com, this past week, and I think they might be people that I've directed here for more info and support re dieting and weight-loss.

Life goes on....as I'm always writing here. We have to be committed to our food plan and follow through even in the busy, stressful times in order to be successful with weight-loss and maintenance of that weight-loss. That's what I'm working very hard to do as well.

Today I'm rather lacking in inspiration, except for sharing my own life's details.  However, there are many very inspirational and informative articles in the Archives.
Take the time to read some.

Recently I posted another cooking video, Strawberry Banana Smoothie,
which is located at DietHobby, under RECIPES, Sweet Tastes.
This is a low-calorie, recipe, and eliminating the banana will make it also low-carb.

Between my current house repair crisis,
and handling the DietHobby YouTube Channel activity spike,
I find myself incredibly busy at present.

This is actually serving me well with regards to my food-intake,
and my "zero-wheat experiment" is going well. 
At the end of today...assuming I am successful...it will be 4 weeks.

However, my exercise is almost non-existent right now,
and I'm having trouble getting the other routine, normal things done.
I will continue posting frequently,
but for awhile, my articles may not have a great deal of Substance.
There are many, many such articles in the Archives,
and they are worth reading, or re-reading.

For those who are following my “Ask Grandma” videos
click to see my latest one: “How To Get A Girl”
which is located in DietHobby under RESOURCES, Videos, Ask Grandma.

Extremely busy right now, just checking in to say Hello,
and to let you know I am eating correctly for Maintenance.

  This would be a good time to check out the Archives
to see if there are articles you've missed or would like to re-read.

 
        
Update on my recent mini-crisis.

I am back home again
after my absence due to the Plumbing Rerouting.
I looked upon it as an adventure,
which is a very positive way to see things that I'd rather didn't happen.

My cat Boodie, could not tolerate being in the hotel away from home,
and after the first night, was boarded by our vet in his little office kennel.
She is also really, really glad to be home.

During the next few weeks, I will be dealing with construction people
coming in to repair the holes in some of my walls, which will include
replacing the wallpaper in both bathrooms, and painting the entire master bedroom.
But, I won't have to leave home for that.

So far, I've been able to stay on my food plan during all this.
 I'm very tired, and am minus any other inspirational thoughts today,
except for the Words of Wisdom video that I uploaded today.
