Her diet dilemma: “I’m going to destination weddings in Martha’s Vineyard and Jamaica. How do I handle the tempting reception food?”

Our expert says: Before you go to any affair that showcases decadent food, dietitian Sharon Richter says, have a light snack with a little protein. Plus, try these tips: Carry a clutch. “It’s much harder to stuff your face at a buffet if you’re balancing a purse and a drink,” Richter points out. Select two appetizers. Pick any pair you want, and then stop there. Avoid the vegetarian option at dinner. It’s probably loaded with cheese. Instead, opt for fish or chicken. Skip the cake. Look for chocolate-covered strawberries, or load up with fruit and drizzle it lightly at a chocolate fountain.
