3rd Christmas period and I think I'm the most relexed during it.

So been diagnosed for two a bit years. The first year I was really anxious around the Christmas period and was nervous eating food(athough it was that September I was diagnosed so was still very very early days back then). I think last year I said I was more relaxed but still found myself getting frustrated a bit. This year I just gone the flow and just had whatever without worrying too much. Spent the last couple of days at my sister's and ended up having most meals out that didn't have carb content information and the one meal that wasn't out with the help of dex I have manged to spend a decent amount in range but didn't obbess about things(I don't think). Before I would have probably refused to have more then a couple of meals in week where I would have to guess a bit(or were difficult)

This is great. I am on my second Christmas having been diagnosed November 22.
It's great to give yourself permission to be a bit more relaxed at some times. Am not quite there but have also eaten out twice in a week with no carb count. It feels like a big step
Good for you and we know we'll be back to being conciencious again now.
Hope you continue enjoying the odd treat and not feel guilty x
