Message: <blockquote data-quote="plantae" data-source="post: 2653581" data-attributes="member: 565464">Just for fun I just checked my Cronometer logs to see what I ate last Christmas. I know you're type 2 and your mileage may vary compared to me but this is a summary of what I had and I don't recall feeling deprived in any way (pretty low carb as well)Breakfast: skippedMid-morning: (9:30) Brie cheese, blue cheese, celery, carrot, 4 jatz crisps (not low carb but I only had 4)Lunch: Ham, chicken, beef, ceasar salad, feta cheese. I remember others having Christmas pudding because it's traditional in my family but I didn't have that (never have). One glass champagneAfternoon tea: more cheeses and 4 more crackersDinner: omelette with ham, eggs, cheddar cheese, onion, garlic, cream. With dinner I had one "low carb beer" (haha, low carb, sure, although it says only 4.8g so that's ok)Supper: more cheese!Looking at it it's probably a typical Christmas for me just with way less beer. I'll probably have the same or similar this year, I don't really have a sweet tooth. I don't know if all those things are suitable for a type 2 diet but it was a low carb day if that's applicable. The only "naughty" things I seem to have had was the champagne and beer, but hey it's Christmas I'm not going to stress over that <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /> Boxing day was similar (in my family we meet one side of the family Christmas Day and the other Boxing Day).</blockquote>
