Maury's Progress - Near Month 5

So cute, Yong!

 

Aww! He's handsome!

 

Kinda looks like my girl!

 

Pretty kitty!

 

What adorable kitties both Yong and Cherish!!!!

 

Angel could be his older sister . Maury thanks everyone for the compliments

 

Maury is gorgeous! We hope he is feeling well!!

 

Don't want to increase the AM dose too much because it is giving nice PMPS but I want to see blues and dark green again!

 

What are you thinking about the dose? Maybe a fat 2.0 for a few cycles, then see about next steps? He does seem to get bouncy if you make any sudden moves, but you're right, he needs some lower numbers. It has been nice to see him stable for awhile though! That has to feel better than all the bouncing around!

 

Welcome back! Well, today I decided to test with going lower, at least he's not staying flat pink today because when I thought about trying to raise again, his PMPS was lower or he ran flat. We'll see what happens

 

That yellow might not be so bad, considering he started out higher today and got less insulin. He should really be more cooperative, though.

 

Indeed! lol

@Djamila I just remembered something! I wonder if switching his MC to lunch is the reason! He's been getting LC meals... Have to check my notes Ok maybe not. Been doing MC lunches since 9 April and got blues and greens

Wait. That was also with more insulin... Sheesh I feel like I can look at some other's SS and figure out things but I look at Maury's and

 

For what it's worth (and it's totally fine to disagree! I promise it doesn't hurt my feelings!), I think he needs an increase, not a decrease. I know you had some wonky cycles the last time you went up to 2.25u, so is that the hesitation? Or am I missing something? It just looks similar to what happened with Caitlin and Pita: Needed a decrease for awhile to stabilize, but now needs in increase to get back to better numbers....?

 

Totally forgot to respond! Yes, I am debating if he needs the increase. Just seeing what this 1.75U does, hopefully 3 cycles will tell me which way to go

 

Well with not much movement at before bed test, he got 2.0U this morning. Will be working later, so planning to get an "out the door" test.

 

So I've had a run of pinks, now in yellows. Next I get a sea of blue right?!

 

I think you and Maury have definitely earned a trip to the Blue Sea

At least the PMPS was a little lower tonight!

 

I think it's because of the 2.0U for AM cycle but if he needs the higher morning dose to get him better numbers, then I'll do a lower dose for PM cycles. It's like we've hit a speed bump taking multiple attempts to get over it

 

Ok we just dipped a paw in blue

 

Nice! What's a SF2.0, Yong?

 

A dose I made up! lol. A skinny Fat 2.0U

 

LOL! How long until you're out of the u40's?

 

Just a bag or two into new box

Side note: Maury is chatting a storm to the birds but as soon as I go to look, he stops like "I wasn't saying anything" Soooo cute!

 

*silent excitement*

 

Shhhh ... very nice ....

 

Looks like that made up dose is working!

 

Whispering excited noises!!!

 

Oops...I forgot to whisper...

 

Should've stuck with same dose since it's a bounce cycle BUT it was only like 2 drops less. We'll get back on track . He has been "talking" to me for over an hour, going upstairs, then back down. Thought he was trying to work a poo out but after first round he went potty. He didn't eat all of his YA this afternoon but I was a little late for lunch. Tempted to offer him a packet of FF Purely naturals that are listed 0% carb but then I'll worry if his PMPS is food influenced . Maybe he just wants attention. Second time today with purrs!:

 

He's your baby, isn't he?

 

He's just adorable!

 

What's a skinny fat lololol

 

It's a special dose only Maury gets.

 

The Maury special! Yes, he is my baby! . He used to lay on my arms/ hands like that almost all the time if I was at the computer. He jumped from the couch behind me to desk today, that made me happy. Even with his pacing, going up and down the stairs multiple times was good for his muscles . Starting to see some of his side markings come back. Since he got his lion cut last year, he was growing back mostly grey. Like the undercoat came back first, now starting to see some of those striped furs coming in!

 

He's gorgeous!!!! Loves boxes too uh.
