Ok, I so share what others have posted about slow starts, today is my fifth "smoke free day" and i had two glasses of water (that's a lot for me) and only had two cups of coffee.
Two days ago I gave yoga class a try, omg i did't know muscles could ache that bad! so yesterday and today i was just in pain and feeling huge again, gave into having some junk food and now am very upset and annoyed about my lack of strength/will power/whatever it is called
But... no point in bringin myself down again, i know. Anyway, if you wonder about the title, this morning i discovered i had a very nasty car oil smear on my nice red jumper, was so upset, then my colleague told me to rub some coke and let it sit. It worked wonders, cleaned away all the oil. She also reccommended it to clean/unclog toilets, can you believe it! I'm sure it works. This i type whilst the unopened can of Coca cola from the menu i ordered is sitting on top of my desk, waiting to go straight in the bin!

Oh yeah...when my sister was a kid she was at girlscout camp and dropped her pocket knife in a bottle of coke and couldnt get it back out without pouring out all the coke. For some reason she thought it would be bad to waste the coke, so she just brought the bottle home. Well...sitting in coke that long ate the knife blades.
The corrosiveness comes from the phosphoric acid in the soda...sad but true. It is actually a pretty strong corrosive, comparatively, especially in concentrated forum.
To be honest, that's the only use I make of Coca-Cola -- as a cleaner. It's particularly useful to clean my electric kettle. And for a TMI moment, I also used it once at a friend's, combined with other chemicals, to get rid of maggots in his trashcan (I swear, these things will outlast the human race! They survive *everything*!).
Blecch! If someone didn't already give up drinking soda, they would after reading this thread. Imagine what it does when it's in your body! (and on your teeth)
When I was horseback ridning, they'd oil the dirt road so that it wouldn't kick up as much dust. We used to use coke to clean the oil off the underside of a car.

I just used Coke in my washing machine, I had oil spots on 2 sweatshirts, I used some spray-n-wash and let them sit for 3 hrs, then washed them in warm water with 12 or so ounces of coke.....viola' came out perfect....I was so glad too, since I just bought one of them and wear them for work...man that 50 cent can saved me $18.00 for a new shirt...lol
Will have to try the toilet thing, I have one toilet that just doesnt flush well
You know, I knew that Coke could clean your toilet...but ewwww....that is so sad.
I am not a big soda drinker (tea for me!) but I will say when I have a migraine (about 1-2 a year depending on the weather and my students ) I get very nausous and coke is about the only thing that helps (doesn't cure, helps) the nausea AND headache. Now we know why...it is eating my brain and stomache!

Explains a lot, actually...lol
It is probably the caffeine in the Coke that helps your headache. Coffee might help you as well with the headaches. I get headaches often because of medication and will drink a cup of coffee when they come on. Helps a lot!
BTW, Excedrin contains caffeine. It used to be that aceptaminophen never did any thing for me, but Excedrin always worked (Excedrin = aceptaminophen, asprin, and caffeine). Now I can't take any aceptaminophen (interacts with my medication) so I go straight for the caffeine (coffee! ) when I have a headache
