5/25 Cinna | AMPS 107 | +2 65 | surfing 50s all day | +9 68 | PMPS 62 | +2 62 | +3 70 | +4 85

54 @ +3, starting to look suspiciously similar to yesterday... will give some more LC now and test again +3.5, or sooner?
 
Just a teaspoon of food each time is enough. You don't want to fill him up. That way he may be willing to eat when you want him to.
 
Forgot to update this at +6...

+6 60 - gave food
+7 53 - gave food

Really looks like he's determined to surf along at these lower levels today... are we going to shoot if he's still in this range at PMPS? :nailbiting:
 
+8 54 - gave 1tsp food

I haven't really got a lot of data this late in the cycle, previous curve suggests he starts climbing around +9/+10. The next tests should be interesting....

He's stayed pretty flat since +3; is it because he would have been anyway, or because I'm feeding him like every hour?
 
+10 63
+11 60
No food since +8
He normally has a meal at +9/+10

I'm not anticipating him getting up to his usual PMPS, I was planning on bringing that forward 15 minutes because I'm trying to slowly get his shot times earlier.

He normally drops at the +2 pretty bad, trying to prevent that with food at +1.

Thoughts on tonights PM shot, assuming he stays in the 60's or even 50's?

The food is helping him coast. It's possible he may have dipped lower without food.

With TR, you can shoot any number over 50 - if you can monitor. Shooting low generally gives you lovely flat cycles. Tag @tiffmaxee if you need help.

If he drops low at +2, feed a little higher carbs so that you can call it a night sooner rather than later.
 
@Bandit's Mom - thanks!!! It was a little stressful seeing those low green numbers all day; I was worried he was going to drop low but thankfully he never did.

I was pretty nervous making that PM shot but I re-read the TR and how to handle low numbers; I think I'm starting to understand a little more about the "shoot low to stay low". Still scary though! I definitely wouldn't be doing this without the amazing support here, you guys are literally saving lives! Thank you seems so insufficient.

Anyway, +2 and he's 62, he's had some more LC. I might give a bit more food at +2.5 and test at +3 to see how we are going.

He went the entire night last night without waking us up for food, which is a huge improvement. Hoping for a repeat tonight. And if he lets me go to bed earlier, I'll be even happier lol

It's still the higher depot at play, so it's okay to mix a little MC with the LC to give him a bit of a bump.
 
+3 70

I haven't found a good MC option yet that doesn't have chicken/turkey, I have HC and LC covered, but need to research MC options more; I gave him a little Weruva Lots O Luck at +2.5, which in hindsight might be a little lower than his Koha Rabbit Pate.

I will give a bit more food and test again at +4.
 
+4 85 - sounds like bedtime to me??

HC I have honey/syrup, it's hard to find novel protein foods with high carbs lol. I'm still looking though.
