Good evening!! Lily is finally coming down from her bounce. She is 131 tonight. Sure hope she will stay flat for a while preferably in the greens! I started using calipers to measure her Lantus. Hope the consistency will make a difference. Hope all have a great night.

 

[Butters & Lyla]

Yay calipers! I saw a huge difference with Butters after I switched to dosing with calipers. I hope it makes a difference for Lily, too.
That PMPS is nice...but I would also prefer she stay in greens.
Have a great night!

Hi Sally. I’m happy you started using the calipers. Let’s see her +1 and +2.

Sounds good, thanks Elise! Fingers are crossed!

Lily is 108 at +1.

Feed her a small amount of lc now.

She is 73 at +2 and eating her mini meal.

+1 for #teamcalipers

Surf safely, Lily

 

[tiffmaxee]

Surf safely Lily. She might need some higher carbs at +3.

She is 60 at +3 and I am feeding her a teaspoon MC.

 

[tiffmaxee]

See you at +4.

 

[tiffmaxee]

I see she’s close to a decrease. Maybe a little hc now to bump her up I think.

 

[Sally and Lily GA]

See you at +4.

Lily is 52 at +4 and eating her mini meal and a couple tsp hc.

 

[tiffmaxee]

Test in 30 please.

 

[Sally and Lily GA]

Lily is now 88 at +4.5.

Looks like we stopped the drop. Test in an hour to see if she stays up. I’m thinking ahead. Now that you are using calipers, the next time she drops under 50 I would like to try a skinny 1.0, dividing the 25 in half.

Ok, if for 1 unit the reading is 1.34, can you tell me what a skinny 1.0 is?

 

[tiffmaxee]

It would be 1.17. We would just half it. I had to do this with Max and it helped.

Awesome, thanks.

Lily is 63 at +5.5.

 

[tiffmaxee]

I was thinking the hc might have been a temporary bump. I’d give a little lc and and test in an hour.

Lily is 62 at +6.5

 

[tiffmaxee]

How about feeding her some lc and setting the auto feeder to give her a little more in 2 hours? I think she’s going to surf green.

Yes sounds good. Thanks for your help tonight! Have a good night.

 

[tiffmaxee]

You too.

 

[tiffmaxee]

I see the bounce.

 

[tiffmaxee]

I bet the bounce clears by morning.

 

[Sally and Lily GA]

I think you are right!! She is 173 now at +3!

 

[tiffmaxee]

She’s bouncing but spending more time in green and clearing quickly. That’s progress.

That makes me so happy!!

As well it should. Your hard work is starting to pay off. With TR he should be increased to 1.25 but it will likely require a lot of testing and food intervention to keep him over 50.

When should I make that increase?

 

[tiffmaxee]

What’s your day like tomorrow? Will you be home to monitor?

I only have to be at my father in laws to help my husband for meals, 3 times a day. That is the only place I go ever except the grocery store and I went there today. Tomorrow is good with me.

 

[tiffmaxee]

Ok. Sounds good. I’m stuck home too because of Covid being rampant. My big outing yesterday was to tge dentist to get my teeth cleaned, lol.

We want to try to prevent a big drop so get a +1 and +2. If she’s green amps I’d wait to increase though.

I won’t even go to the dentist. I did have a haircut a few months back but have seen my stylist on Facebook going to parties and restaurants with lots of people so I guess I will have long hair for a while!! Lol ok I will increase in the morning if not green and get a +1 and 2. Thanks so much for helping me Elise!

It was fine at the dentist. Just my dentist, assistant, hygienist, one other personI heard but did not get in eyesight of at all. I was the first person the hygienist saw and my dentist checked my teeth in that room. I needed a crown smoothed so waited while his room was disinfected.

Yes I am sure they are very careful. I would definitely go if I had a problem. Hopefully before too long we can get back to near normal. Have a good night Elise!
