Oops. No it's not. Remember that "bad" day I had on Thursday because of my anniversary lunch. Well, it turns out that it wasn't half as bad as I thought it was. Why? Because I entered my meal twice that day. Yep, I tracked my 26 PPV meal two times that day. I'm not sure how I did it but I put the meal in breakfast and in lunch. So when I went back and took it out of breakfast it changed my day and week completely. All of a sudden the birds are chirping, the sun is shining and there are rainbows in the sky!
Okay maybe it's not that great but getting those 26 weekly points back has sure given me a lot of relief. I feel like I can breathe again. Now I can get to WI day without the struggle I thought I would have.
This is a difficult week anyway because I'm retaining fluids still because of the meds I'm taking for my knee plus the shot is making my knee swell which means more fluids being retained. So once again I'm expecting a gain for WI but at least I know why. I'm taking the prescription diuretic but that makes me feel like I'm cheating somehow.
I've been spending a lot of time today thinking about what being OP really means. I know for me it means I'm tracking, staying within my daily and weekly points and doing my best to make good food choices. I try to get in my GHG's every day but always seem to fall short somewhere but I'm at least trying. I was just wondering what everyone else thinks being on plan means. If you have a different idea of what being OP means, I'd love it if you'd share it with me.
Thanks in advance for sharing.
