How to deal with a hangover
As annoying as the ww forums can be, sometimes people say really insightful things. Here's a quote from someone trying to help someone else who wanted to know what to do "the day after" a bad points day:
Start over. Tell yourself it is your first day OP. Our leader talked about that last night. She told a story about a woman who dropped one piece of her fine china, and as a result, because the whole set was not perfect, she smashed the entire set of the china. That is an absurd way to deal with it. Don't smash your whole program because you mess up one day. Look at all the good things you have accomplished instead of the one day of going over the points. That will help you keep from turning something into a disaster that does not need to be turned into one.
That's advice that we are given a lot in our meetings, but it never hurts to be reminded, and I think that this is a very clever metaphor and way of thinking about it.
