Because then, if I'd had to eat something really boring to stay compliant for the first course, it would have been easier because I had a tasty but healthful dessert to look forward to. For me, it could just be oatmeal with brown sugar, which is good cold by the way. I try to plan ahead keeping my vulnerabilities in mind.
Also for me, when I am in a social situation I don't think as well, or focus as well on what I really want to do. So that's another reason to plan ahead based on your own judgment about what will tempt you or help you.
