Good Morning LL! It is the dreaded bounce today, I guess Tess had enough of the extra pokies yesterday. That was a fast drop yesterday morning after her shed got reestablished form the furshot of the day before. We did give her MC food at the +3 and +4 meals instead of syrup or honey to keep her from going too low. I've been wonder if the higher carb food makes her bounce more that if we had used syrup. For Tess at least, syrup lasts only 2 hours. This has been pretty consistent when we have used it. If after 2 hours her BG starts to drop again, another drop of syrup is usually all that is needed to get her past nadir. Yesterday we chose MC food because we were going to be gone, but she still didn't come up that much, until the evening and then , BAM! ohmygod_smile

I know the higher carb foods keep them up longer, but just how long is that and how much does it influence the ensuing bounce? Next time we'll try just the syrup or honey instead. of course then we get into the discussion in Gracie's condo the other day of which syrup or honey to use/ It's too early for all this, I'm giving myself a headache. @-)

WCR All 5 Ps, Clean Plate Club, brushing is ongoing in papabean's lap, and the beans are making no unusual moves indicating they are planning to abandon their posts today.

Huge difference in yesterday's AM cycle and today's!!! Hope she gets rid of this bounce ASAP. Come on, Tess, back to the green lagoon!!
 
Re: 8/7 Tess AMPS~372

Okay, Miss Tess... I don't think you want to wear pink to the party tonight... how about you put on a prettier color? Fingers and paws crossed that the bounce clears soon! The high carb/syrup dilemma is a tough one. Hope you figure out what works best for Tess soon!
 
Re: 8/7 Tess AMPS~372

I hear you, Ann. On all accounts...honey, syrup, karo....carbs? Where's that door I wanted to bang my head against? :lol: Gracie is up there with Tess today.

GIRLS!!!!

Hope they both come down...slowly.
 
Re: 8/7 Tess AMPS~372

Somehow, i think the low bg was Tessie's refinement of THIS "stay with me" strategy...

Come on down Tess - what are you doing up on the pink floor - Mannie left yesterday.... I hope she comes down for you soon. I believe you are right on the carb thing. It happens with Mannie too... low numbers, high carbs, bounce the next day. I wish there was an easy solution. For Mannie this AM i just went with 3/4% LC. worked today... we shall see if it makes any difference come tonight and/or tomorrow. ECID, and who knows, and we just do the best that we can. :razz:

Tess ! It's almost time! CHICAGO! ~~ Mannie
