Good morning LantusLand! Yesterday's Flat Yellows

He's GREEN again at +11.25 - 68
+12 - 86
+12.75 - 105
We're stalling until I see a little higher number.

The flat yellows should have given me a clue but he's not done the dive in any predictable manner lately. It is rising so I'll shoot shortly. He's pulling it all up by himself as I gave him ZERO carb fish/shrimp. He did eat the whole can. Pokie treats are freeze dried liver and chicken.

GO BABY BOY, GO!
 
Re: 11/16 KT +11-68 +12-86 +12.5-105 Short stall

Hi Lyresa, I don't think I've posted in your condo before, welcome! Lovely numbers!

If you are going to stall, please don't feed. I know you fed zero carb food, but that does not mean it won't affect his numbers. First, the carb levels are not that precise. Secondly, some cats look at food and their numbers go up, ultra low carb or not (Jill's Alex is a great example). Lastly, in our experience, it is not only the carb level itself that affects BG. I could feed Mr T two different foods that had exactly the same % carbs, one would not boost his numbers, the other would send his numbers up for several hours. It's just better not to muddy the water with feeding when you stall...you want to see what the numbers do without food influence. You could end up shooting a food spike and not realize it.

Thank you Laurie and Mr. Tinkles!

We've learned that the FF Fish/Shrimp doesn't seem to affect his numbers which is why I felt safe giving him that breffis while everyone else was eating. I do want him to pull up by himself.

+13 - still at 105 - still stalling....
 
Re: 11/16 KT +11-68 +12-86 +12.5-105 +13-105 Stalling

Are you going to be around to monitor today? Do you have plenty of strips and HC?

While you are stalling, the shed is draining. However, since you have fed, I would not be confident that the 105 is not a food spike. IMHO, it makes it hard to decide what is food and what is natural rise. When you have stalled and waited for a rise previously, KT has zoomed up...it would make me more inclined to suggest shooting now, while he's surfing and before he starts to rise, if it were not for the food....see the dilemma?
 
Re: 11/16 KT AMPS 124 (+13.75) 68/86/105/105 Shot full

I went ahead and shot at +13.75 as he'd raised to 124. Gave full dose of 1.75u's.

Yes Laura - I'll be around all day, have plenty of strips AND have both mc and hc food in cabinet! We're ready to DANCE! This is the most movement we've had out of his numbers in a while. I'm waiting on the usual ZOOM up he does - hopefully he won't go sky high!
 
Re: 11/16 KT AMPS 124 (+13.75) 68/86/105/105 Shot full dose

Hi guys .. beautiful numbers today! No sky rocketing KT, keep it nice and low! Have a great day guys!
 
Re: 11/16 KT AMPS(+13.75) 124 +2-174

+2 is 174 - for him, that's not too much of a raise. There's about 3 oz of 6% carb food in it now...

Hugs to all!
 
Re: 11/16 KT AMPS(+13.75) 124 +2-174 +4-195

+4 - 195!

I feel good about this number compared to what he usually does about now! He's doing the 'run' up and down the hall tackling brothers on the way by....feeling good. Plus throwing a little tantrum 'cos others got hard food and he didn't....so he's barking at me. He's the first (and only) cat that I've ever had that barks like a dog - has done it since a kitten. People looked at me like I was crazy until they heard it...then agreed, he barks.
 
Re: 11/16 KT AMPS~124 +2~174 +4~195 +6~296 +9~349 Boun

About usual nadir, he started shooting up but he held it a little longer this time.

+6 - 296
+9 - 349

GRRRRR...bouncy boingy...
