He's bouncing off lime, which is why he's bouncing harder, but 2 cycles of bouncing is not bad at all!
Watch out for some action today!

Is it ok that I gave Farmina should I also give gravy also isn’t this really hard on his body ? He so tired all the time

Yes, it is okay that you gave Farmina. That was quite a dive at onset and you needed some carbs to slow him down. Let's see the next test and give gravy, if needed.
He might be a little lethargic in higher numbers since his body might have gotten used to lower numbers. Let's reduce the dose to 4U if he drops below 2.8/50 today.

He is up from 57. So just feed some YA and test again at +4.

Was he 57 or 97 in the prev test? Says 57 in the condo and 97 in the SS?
In any case, you don't need any more carb for now. Feed him some YA.

That's what I was just typing as well. Her thread says 57 but SS says 97. The thread is also dated 9/04 instead of 10/04.

I tried to give him food and he wouldn’t eat it so The only thing that he would eat, I knew for sure was temptations so I gave him just two Temptations

It was okay if he didn't eat food. The drop had slowed. You want him to spend as much time in green as possible.

Ok I’m always so unsure about feeding or not when he’s in low numbers . Ok cool . I hope it won’t matter that he had 2 temptations .

+5 117 lesson learned about not feeding always when lower numbers
Bandit's Mom

Don't look at just the number but the trend. 97 at +2 was quite a drop from AMPS and very early in the cycle. Feeding some carbs then was okay. That helped slow the drop and flatten the curve. You need more carbs earlier in the cycle when the insulin is stronger. Of course, the exception to this is some bounce clearing cycles when Bailie likes to save the action for the second half of the cycle!
