holy crap, that's a diabetic coma waiting to happen! I think you should "whip up" something WLS friendly, slip it in there and have a piece of that on your plate!

LOL, that won't work, it's a catered event, they might notice my plate on the  serving table, but if it's just on my plate maybe nobody will notice

Good Lord!  There's no wonder why the average person puts on 8 pounds between Thanksgiving and New Years!  As much as I would have loved that type of spread pre-WLS - the thought of it now makes me nauseous! You just strut your stuff right on past that dessert bar and remember that you'll be losing NOT GAINING that 8 pounds Buffy!

Holy cow!!!  I'd carry a pad of paper and put the calorie, fat and sugar in front of each of those desserts and see how many other people stop and don't eat anything.

I agree - bring something with that is WLS friendly and enjoy the time there.  Please - share that Blueberry Cheesecake recipe...I LOVE cheesecake and that sounds like something I could bring with to my family Christmas gathering!
