Here is what I read that Helped me decide on Hen Night and I stuck to Diet coke all night or Pepsi max.x
Janis Roszler, RD, a certified diabetes educator in Miami, Fla., recommends:
- Mixing alcoholic drinks with water or calorie-free diet sodas instead of sugary (and calorie- and carbohydrate-laden) sodas and other mixers.
- Once you have had your drink, switch to a non-alcoholic drink, such as sparkling water, for the rest of the evening.
- Make sure you have an eating strategy and plan in place to avoid overeating and overdrinking in social situations. Alcohol can make you more relaxed, and may lead you to make poor food or drinking decisions.
- Don't drink on an empty stomach because alcohol can have a very rapid blood glucose lowering effect, which is slowed if there is food in your stomach.
- If you're going to have a drink, wear your diabetes identification bracelet or necklace.
