Spring is in the air, and 'tis the season for celebrations, outdoor get-togethers, and children's birthday parties. If you're not careful, all of those soft drinks, chips, slices of pizza, and pieces of birthday cake, can really add up and throw you off of your healthy track! What to do? You can't just become a hermit and miss out on all of that awesome community, over some silly food. No, your relationships are far too important.
What you can do is think ahead. Before you head out the door to your social destination, have a bowl of cereal, yogurt, fruit, a granola bar...something nutritious. Then, when you are at the party, you won't be starving. When you're not starving, you're a lot less likely to load up on the junk food. Treat yourself to one treat or indulgence, instead of five.
So go ahead, get your party on. Just go make a sandwich first.
