Holiday Survival Guide... 

“I'm going to a holiday cocktail party, and I want to enjoy myself without consuming TOO many calories. Any tips?"
It's completely possible to find a balance here... Before any soiree, always eat sensibly throughout the day, and have a light snack before you head out; this way you'll be less tempted to overdo it on all of those hors d'oeuvres. And drink lots of water, before and during the party - staying hydrated helps you avoid confusing thirst with hunger. Sipping alcohol? Alternate with glasses of H2O, and stick with smart selections: a glass of wine, a bottle of light beer, or a mixed drink made with a single shot of clear alcohol (like rum or vodka) and a calorie-free mixer - like club soda.
