day 1 how did it go?

WELL.... day one officially went rather well. Surprisingly. It was Sunday and I decided I had to start as I mean to go on, so I set the alarm for 7.30, allowing myself a half an hour lie-in. My old and infirm cat, who is also blind, woke us up at six o'clock, miaowing and shuffling about under the bed in a blind confusion. Let me explain, my cat is nearly 20 in my reckoning and has moments of total blindness which are heartbreaking to see. sometimes she can see well, othertimes just makes out light and dark or movement. My long suffering husband, who has perfect vision and sense of smell, complained some minutes later of a 'shitty smell', I had had flu and my nose was totally and utterly bunged up and could smell nothing, so of course I told him he was imagining things and to go back to sleep.
Yep, you guessed it, after another half an hour of him insisiting he could smell poo, I got up and moved the bed and there was a massive poo LOG under there! Poor old Mona had obviously got lost and decided any port in a storm. Ooops!
Anyway, after being forced to get up and clean under the bed we had breakfast and decided to take the dogs to the beach.
A wonderful long walk for me and lots of galloping around for them. First goal achieved - do more exercise.
For supper we had pizza, but with a slimming difference! I made it myself! So instead of putting a tablespoonful of olive oil in I put a dessertspoonful and none on the top and made our own tomato sauce sugar free etc etc. Result- delicious dietary pizza!
Already felt thinner, slimmer and happier! way to go!
