Many parties and holiday celebrations center on tempting foods and drinks—but with a game plan, you’ll be able to relax and enjoy them.
- BYO - Offer to bring a dish to share—something that works with your eating plans, but that others will enjoy too. Get some recipe ideas from our Healthy Recipe Collections.
- Survey the offerings and decide on one or two “must-haves.” Take a modest portion of each and fill the rest of your plate with veggies.
- Go easy on alcoholic drinks, which can chip away at your resolve to eat mindfully.
- Focus on the fun and conversation, not the food—and if there’s a dance floor, kick up your heels!
