I almost felt asleep in the bus within an hour after having a smoothie

I'd guess it was insulin. How big was the smoothie?

I had a large one because I love the taste. About 2 1/2 cups.
Tonight I'm back to "safety" with tuna and green beans. I don't want
to gain back the water.

Hmmm...2 1/2 cups of smoothie has got to be c. 75 grams of carb,
depending on ingredients. One banana alone is 30 grams of carb. If
there's OJ in your smoothie, there's another 30 grams (assuming 8 oz of
juice). Strawberries and plain yoghurt are relatively low-carb, but they
still add some. Finally, if you bought the smoothy somewhere, I'd be
shocked if there weren't some sugar or honey in it.
