Christmas-New Year party season? Not in Japan. Better say, Bonenkai and Shinnenkai. Some companies pay to you to get together (especially to drink), traditional otsukaresama and ganbaroukai. There are good meaning on that but to avoid too much drinking served from other co-workers to feel happy the moment or you'll find at the hospital or police station next morning.
It's CHRISTmas, not DRUNKmas. Have a good time, but practice "all things(not otherwise prohibited) in moderation. Yep, exercise a bit of self-discipline.
I know it is hard to find someone with this special action these days, hiwevee SELF CONTROL goes a long way. Someone hands you food, or drinks, don't be a yes man!
eat lots of fiber (or just search for foods that suppress the appetite) before going to a party, it will fill you up longer and wont cause you to eat too much.

Came here for suggestions. Thanks.
Not sure it will work, but ... we gotta try to improve, right?

Avoid getting too drunk by eating so much you don't have room for anything else.
Avoid overeating by drinking so much you pass out early in the night and are too hungover to eat much the following days.
Problems solved.

Just opt out. Celebrate Xmas if you must, but that doesn't mean you're obliged to over indulge.

Self-control? Accountability? Being a miserable sod?
I would strongly advise against all of these. It's Christmas - get stuck in!

Don't go to the parties.

Nothing wrong with a bit of overindulgence at the end of the year. Just don’t be stupid.

Eat less and drink less? But then I’m not scientist
