Check Menus Ahead of Time
Eating out at parties, restaurants, and holiday events can lead to a diet catastrophe. Social gatherings seem to happen every day from November to the end of December. These constant outings can overload people who have dietary restrictions and need to watch their intake of sugar. Most of the time, you find yourself at the mercy of what someone has cooked or what is on a set menu.
If you are comfortable with the person hosting the dinner, you can ask ahead of time what is one the menu and let them know you are diabetic. This will give them a chance to make food appropriate for your diet, or you can ask about bringing your own substitutes for certain dishes.
If you are going to a restaurant or a catered holiday party, you can check out what is on the menu by visiting the business website. That way, you can figure out what you can and cannot eat.
