Ok decided to test what coke actually does to my own body in half hour incriments.....just so everyone understands I am not a looney case....

I ate a Sonic grilled chicken wrap with a Vanialla coke.
Now from past experiences with this meal I usually need 7 units of Humalog to cover this meal.....

Today since my stint and had to correct and what not and when I went to Sonic I wasn't sure if I was gonna eat out, but when I checked my bg, it was 83.

When I to home it was 60. So I corrected with a half of coke and spiked 15minutes later to 109.

Then I decided time to eat lunch.
I took only 5 units of Humalog figured, I still had the tail end running around my system
1:30--109
2:00--162
2:30--151
3:00--112
3:30--106
4:00--86
4:30--71

Now mind you this was with a coke sugarfied coke coke coke......and a fast food wrap and 2 units less then what I usually dose for and with a Bg of 350 at 9:30 this morning.

My conclusion my liver dumped when I was 60 this morning I probably didn't need to correct it......coke works fine as a fix for me


And my mom gave me some money to eat out today, I am still poor this was just a treat from her.
