Well I’m fully expecting a green +2 this cycle, last night saw his biggest drop yet from PS to +2.

16% flattened him out and surfed nicely after that, 3rd time feeding HC and got some feedback last night that he looks like he is normal sensitive to carbs but I guess the verdict is still out on that. I welcome any and all feedback about his carb sensitivity.

all in all looking good. Thanks to @Suzanne & Darcy for pointing out I can get an average from the meter, didn’t even know that!
7 day average 98, 14 day average 117.

might need help today if I get another dip.

He's seeing nadirs in the 60s on this dose. Might have been lower without the HC last night. So it is a good dose for him. For now. You want to watch out for his numbers trending higher and increase if they do. Provide for up to 6 cycles for him to clear any bounce from last night.
 
PMPS 142

Bounce cycle this morning and another PMPS similar to last night. He dipped at +2 last night, we will see what he has in store.

might need help if he dips.
Planning on getting a +2 next.
 
For now, he is bouncing in the day and diving at night. Wondering if you want to get a +1 or +1.5 and feed a little higher carbs then to reduce the diving. Diving can also contribute to bouncing.
Let's see what he does at +3 and how he has responded to the 16% tonight.
 
Ok yes super similar to last night so I think I’m safe testing 40 min after HC at +3.

regarding the +1 test, what would that look like in practice? Say it’s in the 90s, feed 10%, 80s feed 12%, 60s 70s like 16%

I think you want to start with 10% and tweak it depending on his response. It's a lot of trial and error with food and feeding the curve.

Makes sense. So 10% If +1 is 60 or above and test 30 min after? Want to prepare so I can try it out tomorrow night, that could really help smooth the curve and maybe get him lower at next PMPS, great idea!

I'm not sure if his onset is at +1 or +1.5. All the previous +1s have been in bounce cycles. If he starts around 120-140 and drops 40-50 points at +1 (he may not if his onset is at +1.5) then you want to feed 10% to slow him down. See how it goes. You won't get it right immediately. And it will work in some cycles and not in others. That's the nature of the beast.
