Today's PM shot was a bit of a hiccup where I ended up stalling without feeding for 30 mins because of a lower pre-shot, but I'm learning to shoot the lower numbers with less hesitation. Hope you're well and thanks for all your advice!
Hi @Suzanne & Darcy! Quick question for you. Today's PMPS was 96. I stalled without feeding and tested again 20 mins later and it was 106. I waited another 10 minutes, tested again, and it was 111. At that time I administered the typical dose, with some 8% carb food mixed into her typical dinner. I'm going to retest in an hour. My question is--could I have shot the 96, and if so would I have done the full dose? This was the first time I saw a green pre-shot and I froze. Thanks!
It’s kind of up to you as to whether you can stay up to monitor the cycle. She had a really great cycle last night, but it would be an option to try a half dose. You also have to take into consideration that she runs a little lower at night. What did you feed her last night while she was having those greens? I see she’s (not surprisingly) pink this morning, but she’s definitely making progress.
I mixed in about 3 tsp of 8% carb soulistic tender chicken into her typical 3oz 5% carb dinner. Then at +2 I gave her a Sheeba perfect portion (3%) and 2 tsp of the same Soulistic mixed in with some water in it. She snacked on that up until +3.
How exciting! Look at those lower preshots! And you even had a green in the a.m. cycle! Progress! Love it!
Thank you, @Suzanne & Darcy! I'm really jazzed about it. Hoping to keep it going! Have a great night.
