    I think the best strategy to prevent splurging over the holidays. Eat a nice salad or veggies before going out to the family dinners.

    and take small portions of each variety of foods and watch how much starch, and meat I am putting on my plate.

    Make sure not to exceed 1/4 plate of starch and meat. Eat more low calorie vegetables. Also, I would watch how much sweet I will be eating. I have weakness in sweet desserts. I would like to take small pieces to satisfy my cravings.
