'The downside of Christmas is the shortfall in roughage intake.'

i.e.

'Christmas is OK, but it has this drawback: you don't get as much roughage as you would like.'

i.e.

1. shortfall = the amount by which something is insufficient for a given purpose.

2. intake = that which is taken inside something else.

3. downside = the negative aspe
