so an update, been coke free for 2 days now (?)
coffee consumption has gone up, drinking those water bottles
I'd be lying if I didn't say I wasn't climbing the MOFO walls craving my shit
I have found 1 side effect, I usually need to have quite a large amount of carbs at night (say around 70gms, oatmeal for example) otherwies I rebound my blood sugar and wake up "higher" this AM my blood sugar was really good 5.4 (as opposed to in the 7's)
I have to have sweetener and milk in my coffee also in my oatmeal, but thats like a packet or 2 as opposed to 1 liter of the stuff.
I also made an ice coffee to reduce the crave for sweet cold drinks
It's going to be a long road, nearly 10 years of drinking diet pop, so pretty much hooked on this mainline ! expecting to fall off the wagon any day now
I also managed by just drinking coffee, from going to the cafeteria and buying a diet red bull.
