I just looked through last week's topic of the week - Insulin - as I'm probably going to end my last four weeks of my current cycle by adding insulin to the mix. I've read the dangers and am positive that I can choke down enough carbs to combat hypoglycemia, BUT, I work 3rd shift so my schedule is a little different than most. Most days I end up working out at 9 or 10 in the morning with workouts ending at around 11 to noon. I come home, eat at least 2 more meals and then hit the hay at around 2 or 3 in the afternoon.
NOW, the literature said not to go to sleep for 4 to 6 hours after injecting insulin, so if I kept my current schedule (which allows me to sleep an ample amount), I will be going to bed within the danger zone for hypoglycemia.
Is there any way I could eat enough before bedtime to make sure I don't kick the bucket in my sleep?
Given my current schedule, should I hold off until a later date?
I'm certainly not all about dying, not now at least. So don't think that in my quest for bigness, I'm willing to gamble my life. I just want to know if there's any way I can safely adjust my meals, or load up on the carbs to ensure that I won't DIE in my sleep......
