Summer parties EVERY weekend this summer!

So... I've had at least one party to go to every weekend this summer. While I have kept the weight off that I have gained, I have had to do it by doubling up on the amount of cardio I do. Fortunately for me, I don't have to work and can spend most of my day exercising. However, it's still catching up with me! My weight has gone up by 3 or 4 lbs and I've been trying to turn my newly developed 4-pack into a rock hard 6-pack but am going the wrong way!!!! LOL
Luckily I can easily restrain myself during the rest of the week without even a second thought as it is just how I eat now...
However, I think I need to learn to eat appropriately when a buffet of horribly unhealthy food, beer, wine, booze, snacks is put in front of me! I instantly become my old self and would eat until I'm feeling uncomfortable and then bringing myself back to that point every ten minutes or so by grabbing another slice of pizza or hanburger or piece of birthday cake...Its not enjoyable either!
Its comparable to the same feelings, drugs cause an addict! They just want more, never high enough.
I'm definitely going to put some thought into managing my behavior while I am out at these functions.
