One thing that I've learned, but haven't always put into practice is to always make sure you don't arrive at a holiday gathering hungry. That's difficult to do because sometimes I'm so busy getting ready and making sure all the last minute arrangements are made...especially now that I have two children, that I don't take time to eat. So, but when I'm on plan, I really do try to make sure I'm pretty full before I arrive. That way, I can eat a little of what is acceptable and not have overwhelming cravings for off plan stuff. For me, a real binge trigger is when I get too hungry. Making sure I'm not even hungry when I arrive, although not stuffed ensures that hunger won't drive me to the dessert/snack table. I'm in a much better place to make healthy decisions when I'm in control of my hunger. Best wishes as you develop your holiday plan!
