1. Eat normally through the day, so that you don't overeat at night: Many people make this grave mistake; they eat very little in the day, knowing that they will be attending a party at night, where they would be required to eat a lot. This is not a good practice.
2. Before leaving, eat something: This includes eating curd rice, or pairing curd with poha. These tasty and healthy dishes are pre/probiotic combinations that will take care of your gut and prevent acidity and bloating.
3. How to choose from the spread: Once you arrive at the party, it is imperative to know what to eat. The expert suggested you look at everything that is available. Pick whatever food appeals to you the most. Maybe one appetizer, two things from the main course, and one dessert. There should only be three-four things on your plate at a given time.
4. Sit and eat, drink water: Remember to sit and eat your food; chew properly. Also make sure that you are properly hydrated. Otherwise it can lead to a host of problems. Drink water before you eat, and have at least two to three glasses of water through the night.
