Going to a Party? Make a plan to stay safe.



This adage rings true: failing to plan is planning to fail. A plan can be as formal or informal as you’d like.

Some people will sit down and write a plan with pen and paper, while others will simply think it over for a few minutes. Both approaches are fine! Be sure to cover things like handling family gatherings, work parties, cravings, what you’ll do when presented with your favorite off-limits dessert/drink/side dish, etc. Get creative, but be thorough! Be sure to plan in safe treats to avoid feeling deprived and to have something to look forward to.
