Good Morning LL! Tess spent a lot less time in pink on this bounce and a yellow AMPS today which is much better. With all the discussion in Gracie's condo about food I am thinking about adjusting Tess too. we have been getting pretty big drops and bounces again. I'm going to start by feeding her a little more at the first meal and smaller portions for the next 3. We'll see if it helps, of course it could also be that she is just settling down after my screw ps last week.

WCR All 5 Ps today Tess is quite perky, but not quite zippy pants today. She was quite hungry this morning and came to get me for testing and breffis. This bean is going back to bed, this time for sure.

Well, i didn't make it back to bed again and i probably should have since my brain wasn't functioning and I should have feed this a little higher carb to slow her down. We'll see, i'm supposed to go to a bonsai meeting this morning that too we will see about after +9.
 
Re: 11/14 Tess AMPS~288 +1~329 +2~222 +3~198

Guess I didn't screw up too badly. Paws crossed for a nice slow slide today.
 
Re: 11/14 Tess AMPS~288 +1~329 +2~222 +3~198 +4~197

I think I forgot to give Tess 4th breffis, well if I did feed her then she scored and got an extra serving.
 
Re: 11/14 Tess AMPS~288 +1~329 +2~222 +3~198 +4~197

I am SO GLAD that I am not the only one that forgets breffis #4. It's the one that always seems to escape me.... :? Mannie scores then too - more fuds!

Interesting too on the food change. It is similar to what I do for Mannie. He gets the bulk on ps, small amts on the +1, +2, +3. I wish I could remember why I initially decided to do it that way -?? I dunno - something I read somewhere?

Hey Tess - we are the same! I am a 199. COOL!! Hey - I wanna go snowboarding! Will you come? I've have hats and boots and scarves and stuff. and the roadster is all set, and i made lots of catmint tea. pick you up? ~~ Mannie

So great to see Tess becoming more consistent and now in blue today. Great job!!! I hope you get to go to your bonsai class...it would be a nice break!!
You are so good about +1s....I have to get more diligent but Gracie just got poked way too many times yesterday...will get one tonight. Giving her a break
today to nap in the sun.

FUD and feeding schedules...what a blur. All we can do is try something and if it doesn't work, try something else. Have a great day.

YAY! - blue. :-D I hope she has a good cycle tonight. and that you have a restful night.

All this food talk. probably a good thing. I know you feed the +9 - are you eliminating that one?
 
Re: 11/14 Tess AMPS~288 PMPS~200

:roll: Maybe I should have retested to see if I could keep the Blue! :razz: OK, Tess I'm ready for that flat yellow adage to kick in.

Michelle, I am still feeding th +9. I was advised to do so last spring, but she has backslid since then so I'm not sre just how much her pancreas is working now I should ask Libby or Jill what they think. Are you continuing? Wouldn't it be heaven to sleep through the night?
 
Re: 11/14 Tess AMPS~288 PMPS~200

I think that 200 looks blue to me... :-D

I was advised to do the +9 too some time last spring, at the time I switched to the mini meals at the front end of the cycle. There was a post in gabby's condo today about the +9, from Jill, in response to a post I had made. In essence it states no +9.

Wow - sure sounds like the trend is to eliminate the +9. It's one I have done from the get-go. I hope people will post what they discover once they put this into effect. Wondering if I should try this with Mannie... ??

lol! this feeding by everyone at +8 or +9 has been relatively new in the group. i suspect the trend to feed at +8 or +9 came from suggestions made in condos of those close to going OTJ as a way to help pull preshot numbers down... and the intention was misinterpreted by others. one thing leads to another. pretty soon everybody's doing it! :-D

so - i dunno. i know Mannie will peak at about +9/10, and then be down for ps. I thought this was the snack talking, but have since read that this a quirk of Lantus - and that these dips at ps are the Lanuts talking, not the food. so.... what to do. I suppose I should stop - it's not like Mannie is anywhere near otj status, and per what I read he should not be fed at +9. I really thought it was helping him.... :sad: , guess not. I think I will wait until this new dose has a chance to settle, so i'm not adding another change into the mix, and then stop. yes - sure would be nice not to have to feed that one. :-D :-D :-D
 
Re: 11/14 Tess AMPS~288 PMPS~200

do any of us agonize this much about our own diets? and yet...i'm willing to go the distance if it's for the cats...cuz cookin my spaghettios frees up a whole lotta time for me! :-D
 
Re: 11/14 Tess AMPS~288 PMPS~200

I'm such a pot-stirrer :lol: :lol: I didn't mean to throw everyone's feeding schedule into a tizz but guess we'll all learn something new and help
each other with it.

Celi..definitely my diet does get this much attention and I'm all ready to heat up the can of spaghettiossssss!!!

Nice PMPS for Tess....definitely blue. How's the +1.5? Gracie made a liar of me...she dropped at +1..hmmm...maybe my plan is working anti jinx

Have a good evening, Ann.
 
Re: 11/14 Tess AMPS~288 PMPS~200 +1.5~201 +3.5~119

Sheesh, I got caught up in other condos and forgot to post in my own. At +1:30 Tess took a giant leap of 1 whole point.

Tess and I were dozing and I've totally screwed up my schedule, so I'm about to get a +3:30 .... :o that'll teach me to not pay attention! Down to 119, time for last din din!
 
nice drop there Tess! Looking mighty fine this evening. i see green....

have a good night - Mannie and I are done - he's in the yellows - think I'll give him a break for the rest of the night.
