[Jason - Kona's Dad]

I'm going to test something with food in an attempt to know thy cat.... I decided to give her the 0.0% carb at the +2 in an effort to drop her into the greens. Then depending on what I see at +3, may use the Steak Frites if it's too much of a drop or just keep the nomal 0.5% or the 0.0% to ride higher green numbers safely.

Considering the dive at +2, you want to feed 5.5% now and not 0%

hmm... so too much diving already? I can see that now. Okay, well, she get's two teaspoons then!

 

[tiffmaxee]

Big drops can cause a bounce.Also a drop at onset means an active cycle is likely. A big drop means very likely.

 

[Jason - Kona's Dad]

Big drops can cause a bounce.

I saw the taste of greens the last 4 cycles and got too greedy... I need to relax! =)

Thanks @tiffmaxee @Bandit's Mom for checking me!

 

[tiffmaxee]

It’s natural to see green and want more. Fd teaches patience which I never quite learned.

The patience is the hardest part!!

Another active cycle for Kona. Lovely!

 

[Jason - Kona's Dad]

Big drop, maybe I should have used the Peking Ducken 9.10%

She might surf here, let's see what next test brings.

 

[Jason - Kona's Dad]

Ugg.. I have to leave the house in about 30 minutes. So I'll test again to see where she is at at +4.5. I have someone at the house that can give whatever food needed, but they can't test.

Back in 30 minutes.

Testing again at +4.5

 

[allicatmeow]

71 to 65 is nothing, could be simple meter variance. Food seems to be keeping her surfing. Great job!!

71 to 65 is nothing, could be simple meter variance. Food seems to be keeping her surfing. Great job!!

I used two different meters, both the same ReliOn Classic, and got 64 & 65. I always average the two numbers. This time I went with the 65. =)

I hope you're right, has me worried to leave, but after 4 hours in.. she has to be flat or starting to go up. I'll test here again in a few minutes for piece of mind. I'll cancel if I need to.. but it's an important family event.

Looks Iike she typically nadirs around +4, so I think you are right that she may flatten here and go up. You are doing a great job!! I wouldn't cancel your event.

68! at 11:23am I'm out the door now and on the road! Good luck Kona bear!

Thanks @allicatmeow

 

[Jason - Kona's Dad]

Lower pre-shot number than expected. I'm trying something new tonight giving her 2.9% carbs for her main meal since she is really low versus the 0.5% I normally would do.

Soon you will crave those low preshots and have no fear! Everyone told me I would and look at me now.

ha ha, I'm still recovering from 10/19. I can't believe I was so calm, but it was all FDMB, 100%

Everyone here is so amazing in talking us through those scary firsts!!

 

[tiffmaxee]

Lower preshots quickly become addictive but scary when caught off guard not expecting them. Then you get to deal with green preshots.

Bouncing now at+2 from all MY antics?

 

[Jason - Kona's Dad]

 

[tiffmaxee]

Likely bouncing from the pretty am cycle but I’d still get a +4 in case it’s the food.

 

[Jason - Kona's Dad]

Absolutely, I'll do the +4 for sure! Should I do the +3 or chill?

 

[Bandit's Mom]

She seems to be bouncing, so you could get a +3 and call it a night if she is higher, rather than stay up till +4 - unless you are going to be up till +4 anyway.

I'm staying up super late, it's the weekend! No worries, so I'll check at +4. Thanks @Bandit's Mom

I forgot the +2 snack =( so we dropped.

I'll give 0.0% snack now. Let's ride the low tide wave....

Wow, thank you so much for the kind words. I'm still trying to figure it out, but I'm nothing without all the people here that help me daily.
