    Love seeing the yellows instead of stretches of reds and pinks. Great Job!
    Looking at her SS and reading the sticky description of bouncing, when do you think the next drop *should* happen?

    Thanks, Angela. :)
    Up to *3 days/6 cycles. (But she usually clears a bounce fast, so I’m waiting every cycle fit the drop).
    When do you predict her drop?

    And thanks for helping to guide me.

    No thanks necessary :)
    In answering your question, we need to ask, 'what is Ivy bouncing from?'
    We define a bounce as:
    BOUNCE: When a cat’s BG numbers drop into a low range, drop fast, or drop into a range the cat is no longer used to, the liver and pancreas may respond by releasing a stored form of glucose along with counterregulatory hormones. This causes numbers to spike back upward. It can take up to 3 days/6 cycles for a bounce to clear.​

    It could be from 8/24 PM+5 103 or the 8/25 PM cycle stretch of upper blues.

    I agree it’s either or both of those cited incidents.
    I understand “why” she bounces…..And now the million dollar question is: how to get the bouncing to stop, so she can just spend more time in better numbers and heal?
