viewtopic.php?f=9&t=120623

I was so exhausted last night. Draining afternoon at my mom's. Lots of drama, sigh. Fortunately it wasn't health related but it was difficult nevertheless. I fell asleep a couple of times during the evening but fortunately had set an alarm for the 4.5 test just in case. I made a decision to go to sleep for good at that point. I did wake up a few times during the night but could't drag myself out of bed. So Max likely went lower last night than the 168 based on his AMPS. How low is anyone's guess.

After yesterday's surprise drop by +3.5 I'm a little afraid to go to my 10:00 spin class. It's never been a problem before. I guess I'll test at +2.5 and see where he is. It's close and I would be back by +3.5 again if I rush right back.

Thanks for stopping by last night Julie. As you can see I took your advice, :lol:

Marje, I'll check now to see if Gracie went back down as well.

Happy Sunday. I'm sending vines to all kitties and beans in need!!
 
Re: 6/22 AMPS 117

Woohoo !!!! Gooooo Max!!!
I hope everything with your mom is better today :YMHUG:
 
Re: 6/22 Max AMPS 117

Hi Elise,
Nice start for Max. :-D
I hope he surfs well today.

I've only seen people doing a spin class at the gym and never took a class myself.
It looks glueling.....
You must be really fit to be able to catch up with that pace!

Sending prayers that things will work out with your mom.
 
Re: 6/22 Max AMPS 117+1=148

Thanks, Julie. I am cautiously optimistic that the severe bouncing is ending. If so it looks like we are at the "I won't let you sleep and I might not let you take your favorite spin classes either" phase. That's okay because there are plenty of other classes to take.

Mariko, I've been taking spin classes for years. It's a good full body workout. You should try it some time. All levels can do it as you control how much or little tension you put on the bike. I started doing it when my friend's nutritionist told her that all the runners she worked with saw their faces drop!! Well that and I wanted to protect my knees and the stair machines are too boring. I find I get the most bang for the buck with a good spin.

Well we have a smallish food spike and he ate a good first meal, more than usual but it was lc. We might be on a mission today.
 
Re: 6/22 Max AMPS 117+1=148

Nice bounce recovery! I wonder if he's switched to daytime action mode and is giving you a break at night now? :cool: Glad you got some sleep last night. Feels good doesn't it - better than a spin class.
 
Re: 6/22 Max AMPS 117+1=148+2=138+3=166

Maybe he hasn't switched to days or maybe the mc at +2 was a bad call on my part. He's eaten plenty already so I'm not feeding him right now and will see what happens next. Yes, I REALLY needed some sleep last night. i could have made my class but didn't want a repeat of yesterday so soon.

Maybe a second food spike and he will still come down??! If that happens this will help me in the future perhaps when I nned to leave him.
 
Re: 6/22 Max AMPS 117+1=148+2=138+3=166+4.5=170+6=157PMPS 18

Kind of a weird cycle for Max. Better all blue than all yellow but I'm wondering what it means.
 
Re: 6/22 Max AMPS 117+1=148+2=138+3=166+4.5=170+6=157PMPS 18

What a cool blue cycle for Max today. :-D When Eddie was in good numbers, he'd sometimes "bounce" by wobbling around in mid-blue numbers for a cycle. Hopefully, Max is just "bouncing" and his bounces will be limited to mid-blues.

Hopefully he will take it easy tonight and let you get some rest. Have a good night Elise!
 
Re: 6/22 Max AMPS 117+1=148+2=138+3=166+4.5=170+6=157PMPS 18

I tried comparing with my back-up meter as well. Sometimes they are 2 points apart, sometimes 30 so I stopped because it was making me crazy. Meter variance gets in the way. I think it's only good to compare if you get an odd reading. I hope Eddie comes down and stops bouncing in pink. Have a nice night.
 
Re: 6/22 Max AMPS 117+1=148+2=138+3=166+4.5=170+6=157PMPS 18

I would not mind a bounce in the blue numbers! Max is looking good - you had quite a night last night! Glad to hear you got some rest and I hope your mom is doing alright!
 
Re: 6/22 Max AMPS 117+2=138+3=166+4.5=170+6=157PMPS185+3=76

I'm actually not sure if it is a bounce or just surfing blue since last night. In any event it led to :mrgreen:

Thanks for the visits Jen and Ruth.

Fed lc but am wondering if I should have fed mc. He did drop kind of fast.???
 
Re: 6/22 Max AMPS 117=157 PMPS 185+3=76+4=46

Again, I didn't see this coming. I pulled out the big guns because he has been doing so much better and I don't want to need a reduction. I gave him a little mc with karo. He ate a lot at +3 so I didn't expect another drop before +4. I guess an all blue cycle means the next will be an active one.
 
Re: 6/22 Max AMPS 117 PMPS 185+3=76+4=46/48

That's two below 50. :cool: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: Surf it Max!

Sometimes flat blue for Neko means active later too.
 
Re: 6/22 Max AMPS 117 PMPS 185+3=76+4=46/48

It's 3 times on different days under 50, right? So yes this is number 2. This cat is going to give me an ulcer.He's been looking so good.
 
Re: 6/22 Max AMPS 117 PMPS 185+3=76+4=46/48+5=53+5.5=53+6=66

Max wants to pull an all nighter at this pj party! We'll be up with you for a little bit :)
 
Re: 6/22 Max AMPS 117 PMPS 185+3=76+4=46/48+5=53/53+6=66/89

I guess I overdid it a little with the carbs. Max is up to 89. No more food and I'll test a couple more times. He's likely to bounce from this. So now I think I need to give him the mc food if he is under 80 and not wait to see what he will do. I don't feel like I managed this right tonight.
 
Re: 6/22 Max AMPS 117 PMPS 185+3=76+4=46/48+5=53/53+6=66/89

Max is looking good, keeping you up, but looking good. Less bouncing!
 
Hi Elise.

It's so hard to know what to feed them when they drop like that. I used to always feed LC and Cinco would come right up, but lately he's needed MC, and last night I had to resort to Karo and HC! :roll: As Chris would say, "he's just being a cat". Indeed. I hope Max gets on his surf board and gives you some nice, safe numbers so you can sleep. I'm a total zombie right now, and Cinco just came up to 90 at +7.25, so I'm calling it a night (even though it's morning).

Sending vines for your DM, too. And hugs. Thanks for all your support! :YMHUG:
