Special occasions, be they holidays or historic election days are great for indulging. Enjoy without shame or guilt!
The day after-- eat your 2 point breakfast and keep yourself busy, don't think about "getting back on the wagon" just get back to normal. Eat your points and enjoy that light feeling that comes with going to bed after a day of eating just enough instead of a day of too much.
You are a healthy woman! You can make great choices for yourself to celebrate with food or to simplify and reduce your food intake every day!
P.S. One thing that helps me when I am recovering from a day or weekend of excess is noticing how much MORE I can eat when I prepare a healthy meal. High fiber bread, a couple slices of deli turkey, mustard and laughing cow cheese--3 points! I used that same three points for 2 measly fun size snickers a few days ago! This helps me feel like I'm not depriving myself when I'm eating fewer calories/less fat.

good pep talk. I see a future for you as a WW coach.
I'm going to take your advice and make today a kind of cleansing day. In fact, I'm going to make myself that turkey sandwich for lunch!
