[QUOTE="kay957, post: 113530, member: 17936"] I have had a lovely christmas eating more or less the same food as everyone else, albeit I fed them (tghe family) diabetic foods I made at home, mince pies, christmas cake etc... no one really knew the difference and when telling my family that the cake they were eating was diabetic, made with wholewheat flour and no sugar, they couldn't believe it. I now know I can eat a little of what I like on the odd occasion and I don't suffer too much. However, the alcohol bit didn't work for me, it made me feel quite ill so once I didn't have any I was back to normal. Another little treat I had was 2 squares of 70% cocoa chocolate which was delicious. I found a nice bottle of non alcoholic wine that I drank so I didn't look the odd one out at family gatherings. :D [/QUOTE]
