There are several ways to successfully survive the holidays as a diabetic, and for me, the easiest way is to ignore them as much as possible. I didn’t plan that this year, but it worked out that way.
I successfully ignored Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas and even New Years, which I think the last bugged my husband the most. He helped though as he wasn’t much into the gift giving spirit, starting with our anniversary which is before Halloween. Next year, I think I am going to have to be assertive and tell him exactly how I want things done, or just ignore it again.
But don’t take it personally, it is a good survival technique.
