A FEW QUESTIONS FOR KETO COACHES/EXPERTS!:

[Guest guest]

Hi, guys! Hoping you can help. Jimmy is doing well on the diet

(Lennox Gastaut seizures are GONE, except when he is sick or

teething!). He was having over 100 seizures a day before the diet,

and was on a combination of 6 different medications.

Anyway, here goes: Jimmy's reduction in seizures caused him to

require fewer calories than originally specified during induction (he

had " failure to thrive " pre-diet, and it was suggested that he get a

G-tube, but we held-off!). We stuck with formula in the beginning,

and now I'd like to learn to get creative and introduce foods. I was

hopin you could suggest purees (ie: cheesecake recipe, or other

babyfood-like consistancy foods that kids love that are Keto-

friendly).

Also, I was hoping you could explain the process of learning how to

convert his total calories per day (750 total, divided up into 4

meals), and his 3:1 ratio, into knowing how much of each ingredient

to add into the meals. I have tried to figure it out from the book

and the Meal Planner/excel worksheet, but I'm not getting it! Would

the software that is sold by Hopkins be more helpful/user-friendly,

or is it the same thing?! I didn't realize it was so tricky! And I

previously thought I was decent at math....HUH!

I appreciate any help you can give me!
