Have the spagehetti sauce, but not the noodles, bring fired strips of zucchini for your noodles. MOst sauces are low in carbs, esp if homemade. I know its hard in communal social situations. I went to a staff pot luck baby shower last night and I was terrified that I would cheat big time and pay for it later. But there were trays of nacho dip, you know ground meat, cheese ,veggies and cream cheese, and salads and meatballs. And while I couldn';t be sure these things were totally low carb, they were better than eating the desserts and pastas and potatoes. Good luck again and let us know how the spahetti goes.
