I don't know if it's newbie enthusiasm, but I'm sticking to low carbs for Christmas. The only issue is that I feel bad that I'm visiting family and they feel they somehow have to work around me. My brother I don't think understands it at all. He thinks I can't have cheese or pigs in blankets. He's bought some lovely desserts that are nearly pure sugar and has reassured my that he has 'plenty healthy veg' for xmas day such as roast potatoes, parsnips, carrots, mashed sweet, etc.
I haven't studied carb counting yet, so not sure I can compensate for this. I made us Spanish omlettes for lunch, but for dinner my bromade fish fingers and normal baked beans and my BG was nearly 12 a few hours later.
