Someone up thread mentioned it earlier, and for myself and my girlfriend, we look at it as a treat, not a cheat. I find I don't have the taste for really carby foods anymore. This morning my steak and eggs came with potatoes. I ate the eggs, attacked the steak, and after all that I tried two pieces of potato. Wasn't as good as I thought it would be.
As for Thanksgiving dinner, I have never really liked mashed potatoes and gravy, or ANY kind of stuffing. I'll be eating the ham and green beans, a little of the bird, but as far as sweet potatoes or desserts like pecan pie, no thank you.
SJTMILLER, thanks for the link to that pumpkin cheese cake, it looks awesome. I'll have to try it out a few times so I can get it right before I show up to TG dinner and start handing it out.
When friends and family come over for dinner, they are constantly surprised by how good our food is. Lots of people think low carb food is bland and repetitive, but I find that those people tend to be people that don't cook much, or are afraid of trying new foods.
