eat something healthy before you go so you are not starving and eat too much. Then fill up plate with little bite of everything in case she asks if you liked something and if she asks if you want more says no I'm still working on this one.0

what are you having? What about it do you consider to be inherently "unhealthy?"0

I went to my GF's mother's birthday dinner party last night. Lots of people, h'orderves, alcohol, huge spread for dinner and of course, 2 fat juicy cakes calling my name. I love me some cake, man. If you take a look at my food diary from last night you'll see that I didn't really restrict myself from having a bit of this and a bit of that but I still stayed under my numbers. I didn't drink any alcohol because I didn't want to lower my will power. I didn't eat any cake because by the time the cake was served I figured I had already consumed enough calories and macros. That's the second BD party I've been to in 2 weeks. I guess what I am trying to say is don't stress out and have a crappy day. Just be mindful of what you are eating and how it will affect the numbers in your food diary. If you know what sort of food is going to be there, look it up ahead of time on MFP so you'll have an idea of what's naughty and nice. Life doesn't have to suck just because you are trying to lose weight.0

Leave room between each type of food, so you can see the plate "separating" each of the different foods.0
