You Don’t Have To Gain Weight From Holiday Partying. No, Really.

It’s holiday time, so you know what that means — parties! And food! And drinks!  But even though you must make the rounds, that doesn’t mean that you should go all out on the calories.

When you get there, cruise the buffet and choose three foods.”
