Portion control

Instead of avoiding sweets altogether, enjoy small portions. Sharing mithai or cutting them into smaller pieces can help you taste everything without overeating.

Choose healthier sweets

Opt for homemade or jaggery-based sweets, dry fruits, or baked alternatives over deep-fried and sugar-loaded options. They are lighter and provide better nutrition.

Stay hydrated

Drink enough water throughout the day to flush out toxins and prevent overeating. Sometimes thirst is mistaken for hunger during snacking.

Eat before heading out

Have a light, healthy meal at home before attending parties. This prevents bingeing on heavy fried snacks and sweets at gatherings.

Have fibre and protein

Add salads, fruits, sprouts, and protein-rich foods like paneer or dal to your meals. They keep you full and stabilise sugar spikes from festive treats.

Limit alcohol 

Cocktails add empty calories. Stick to water, sparkling water, or coconut water for better balance.
