- Avoid all things laden with mayo! This means the typical potato salad and macaroni salad. Can't live without those 4th of July traditions? Try these recipes instead: Roasted Potato Salad and BLT Macaroni Salad.
- Come armed with your own healthy dishes. Arrive at the party with your own turkey burgers, whole wheat buns, and a fruit salad!
- Try to plan plenty of activity for the day. Attending a beach BBQ? Bring your boogie boards, snorkels and fins and get in plenty of cardio to offset any extra calories. Going to someone's house? Take the family out for an early morning hike.
- Don't forget to limit the cocktails! Enjoy in moderation, but watch the calories and sugar.
