Some tips to help you navigate those holiday social events

First of all, have a good time.  You did not attend the event to lose weight,
you went to have fun.  It's great if you can stick to your usual healthy nutrition, but if that doesn't happen it is ok.  Don't be hard on yourself if things don't go
as you expected.

Set your focus on the relationships, not the food.  It's the people you went to see.

Avoid leftovers.  If the host suggest you take food home, it's ok to say
"no thank you".  If you are the host, be ok with throwing food away.  It's better
for leftovers to go to waste than to go to your waist.

Immediately return to your healthy lifestyle and make being active during
this busy time of year a priority.

Above all else, truly enjoy spending time with family and friends.
