1. Follow a diet which is low in sugar and fat but rich in protein, complex carbohydrate and fiber. Fixing a calorie goal can be a good way to exercise control.

2. Have homemade curd, buttermilk, yoghurt and other probiotic drinks to keep the gut healthy. Fill your stomach with coconut water, lemon water and fruits.

3. Avoid alcohol completely, even caffeine must be consumed in moderation(1 cup of tea/coffee in the day). Rather you can consume herbal teas like chamomile tea, peppermint tea, hibiscus tea etc.

4. Do not forget to work out or go for your walk on the day of the festival. Working out is important. Working out will not only help in the removal of unwanted toxins but will also help you in losing the water you have retained due to binge eating and alcohol consumption.

5. Give yourself a break from highly processed foods that contain high levels of sodium, sugar and unhealthy fats. Sugar-sweetened beverages, like soda, negatively affect your weight and health in many ways.

6. Substitute vegetable oils with good oils such as olive oil, coconut, and flaxseed oil, etc. Olive oil is one of the healthiest oils you can buy.
