Leo Babauta shares a dozen reader-sourced tips for avoiding overeating at holidays, birthday parties, dinners out and other social gatherings.

It is a practical guide to enjoying time with family and friends without the overeating that often comes with it.

Quotes to ponder:
"Mindful eating is eating slowly, fully tasting the food, appreciating every bite, being conscious of what you're putting into your body, savoring but not overdoing."
"If your mouth is talking, it can't eat."
"Two big meals on Christmas or similar occasions don't spoil a year-long habit of healthy eating."
