AMPS 71F Fedlc/mc
+1 88 feed lc
+2 63 feel lc/mc

Will test again at +3

 

Very nice!

 

waiting with bated breath!

 

+3 67

I've been giving him to much food after every shot. More like a large tablespoon. But I didn't give him a big breakfast

 

You can switch to LC now. See if we can keep him surfing these numbers since you are home today.

 

Did you get an auto feeder? Now is the time to experiment and see what’s needed to keep him green as long as possible but also we don’t want him to go under 50 for as long as possible so he has a strong remission. Tricky but since you are home and can test more often it will be less so.

How’s his weight now?

 

I do have the auto feeder. He wasn't as interested in eating so I grabbed a different flavor. Perhaps he can to much earlier.
I will set the feeder for this afternoon. I've used it for at night. So I need to add more times. I'll do that today

 

It’s good to know he will eat from it!

 

+4 76

 

If it isn't too late, don't feed at +4 and get a +6.

 

I did not feed! Will get a +6.
Thank you

 

+6 is 68

 

oh very nice. has he eaten his share of food for the day?
maybe a teaspoon of LC now to keep him surfing?

@tiffmaxee feed now or later?

 

I gave him a teaspoon.
I don't think he's had his share for the day yet.
I can put tiny amounts in auto feeder for 2x before PMPS but before the 2 hours before that time

 

Test in about 15-30.

 

Let’s see the next test.

 

Testing now. I had to run to the grocery store quick

 

7.5 is 79

 

Closer to+8 than +7

 

I’d not feed and test in 2 hours. I don’t think he will go lower. If you want you could test in 1 and 2 hours.

 

Sounds good. I'm 4.25 hours before his PMPS. He should be good not to eat until after PMPS or I can test him right before, just in case?

 

70 at 9.75

 

@tiffmaxee so you think I should feed or wait 2 hours until pmps at 630 cst

 

Just saw this. Was on Peloton . What did you do?

 

I gave a tiny bit. Like teaspoonish

 

I think you were fine either way. Curious to see the PMPS.

 

He will not have had food for 2 hours when I test in 30 min

 

PMPS 93

 

Perfect! I’d get a +2.

 

How much should I feed? He seems hungry. How much should I save for later

 

How much do you feed over the course of the night? I’d feed half if it now and then space out the rest over the next 4-6 hours.

 

+2 is 57. I prob didn't feed him enough.
Mixing lc and mc now.

 

I lost track of what l how much I fed him today. I opened a new can because he wasn't eating the one I had opened, plus I was giving some med carb.

I know what I should feed for tomorrow. I'm gonna portion it out now for tomorrow.

 

She might need higher carbs. Let’s see the +3. Is she’s acting super hungry test sooner please. That was a very big drop.

 

I just saw steady at +3. Give more mc. We want a week of a drop of insulin if possible. She looks like she might have other ideas.

 

+4 75
He was acting hungry. Should I give him low carb now?

 

I realize I didn't put +3 or something. It was 61 then and I gave a little more each. Now he has at 75. Was thinking little more low carb?

 

Yes lc now. He’s surfing. Well done. I saw the 61 on your spreadsheet.

 

@tiffmaxee tomorrow AM we shoot any number over 50? checking since you won't be around. carb him up (if need be) and shoot?

 

great, thank you.
so do a drop if over 50? but give him higher carbs if he is closer to 50? then feed test every hour?

 

Yes. I would shoot anything 50+ because you can monitor and feed accordingly. It’s not so much the amount of food at each feeding but the % carbs and frequently enough to keep him over 50. The early drop was likely not enough carbs.

 

Btw if you should wake up during the night I would grab a test later in the cycle. I don’t think you need to set an alarm. Just test if you happen to wake up.

 

Are you setting up the auto-feeder for any more food tonight? A LC snack in the second half of the cycle?

 

I'm going to schedule 2 small feedings tonight. Just to be sure. Is that ok?

 

Not later than +9

 

With the auto feeder don’t worry about another test.

 

I typed that before I saw what you wrote. ☺️ I will schedule before +9.
Thank you

 

What do I not want him to get below? Should I feed medium carb tomorrow?

 

If he falls under 50 you would stop insulin. We want to keep him on a drop at least 7 days if possible. So if 90 or above you can feed lc but if 50-70 mc and 70-90 a mix of lc/mc should be good.
