so I was at work all day- I did a test right before I left, and saw she was going down at +2 instead of it being closer to her AMPS
I added a little corn syrup on top of her +2 meal because I was nervous she was going to continue dropping and wanted to spike her a bit while I was away? Not sure if that worked or not. Her +8 is a good number, so who knows what it was throughout the day.
Oh- I wanted to ask everyone- I have “light corn syrup”. Should I get the regular one? Or is there a “regular one” it also has salt as an ingredient which I find odd..

It looks like Mimi had a nice surf today. I don't know about the corn syrup.

Do you think putting some corn syrup on her food at +2 was a good idea since it was lower than her AMPS?

Yes, either that or leaving HC food out.

She was going surfing no doubt about it. I would have loaded the auto feeder with medium and high carb food - mixed together if I had to leave for the day - you did good by leaving out some high carbs for her...she looks good later in the day too...so she may have been falling...if you can't be there to monitor, it's best to try to leave out some higher carb foods.
