? 9/10 Kit AMPS 128, +1 103, +3 60, +5.5 86, +8 117, PMPS 179, +2 145, +4 78, +7 86

Yeah, that was the number that concerned me. Testing this week is rougher, at least Monday through Wednesday. Some mornings I can stay home, but I have meetings all three mornings this week that I have to be at.

I for sure feed at +1, +2 is when I have been trying to leave for work, and then coming back at +5 to check on her. Maybe it's better to just wait a bit longer? She is at 78 at +4 tonight. It all just gets confusing, and I want to have her on whatever dose currently is best for her.
 
She gets food put down at shot times, and then I try to get her to eat at +1 and +2. She mostly has her food left out since I am back to work, but I try to get her to eat at +5 when I come back home, and depending on how well she does before I have to go back to work, I may leave the tablespoon-ish that I put out at +5 out for her to finish, and if she doesn't finish it right away, it's out until I get home at +11 or +11.5.
Weekends I can feed her in a more controlled manner, but the AM cycle on weekdays is rougher because of work. +3 is not really much of an option unless I'm home because she's low. I can't really move shot time earlier to get a +3 snack in because of work commitments - it's difficult to not be at work +7 to +11 because I have student employees working in my scene shop at that time.

Evenings is a snack at +1 and +2, and then between +3 and +6 as needed to keep her coasting. I usually try to pull up her food around +7 (unless I sleep through that alarm.)
 
Maybe review that dose increase question after Wednesday, when you have time to monitor more. She's got quite a few 60's nadirs, much less that 55. So let's just throw that dose increase gauntlet down on the table for a couple days, and see how she responds.

Is an autofeeder an option? So she can get a snack when you're not around and also so that she cannot eat food that you've left out for her at AM+5 later than say +6 or so. I wonder if her eating late in the cycle is contributing to higher preshots.
