Load up the healthy stuff before even thinking about fattening foods. There is two ways to do this. Number one, eat before you go to any party. You can control your food in your own kitchen. Then when you arrive at the party, you would not have a howling stomach to feed and you can control you appetite. The other way is to head on to the healthy section first and fill you stomach with salads, fruits and low fat clean meat cuts. Oh ya, skip the fattening dressings.
