Day Three on the diet .........

Today Toby will have his first all day where all his meals are Ketogenic. With the fabulous support from Vicki, Toby's dietician I have been able to follow her meal plans for Toby.

Toby had breakfast as usual and really enjoyed it, with regards to the diet plan we are finding breakfasts a doddle and initiating the diet this way has helped me to remember quantities and this meal is already second nature.

GOOD TIPS: Toby so far has enjoyed Ready Break his allowance is 10g and I found an old formula milk dispenser brilliant for weighing out portions. You can write on the tub and it comes off in wash!

Yesterday we made our first Keto Pizza ( see pics) Hallie helped and was absolutely brilliant at counting strawberries an raspberries into empty jelly pots (they hold 50g raspberries well), once she weighed them she chopped and labelled them with a weight ! This has made the next few puddings a lot easier!
Improving her mathematics whilst playing an important role in all of this....... This has been great for Hallie, finally she feels she is helping her brother fight the seizures.........
We made a trial pizza and both tried a little and not only did it smell divine but it tasted so nutritional and fresh, Toby enjoyed one for his tea and we stored one for Toby's lunch today his meals are all ready bar his evening meal which I am going to make batches Creamy chicken..... i will let you know how I get on.

Toby so far has adjusted well his Ketones are rising and although its a little early to tell if this is having an impact we have noticed Toby sleeping a lot deeper for longer....... (no 4am wake up call this morning!)

Toby's Cluster seizures when waking appear to be lasting 20 mins rather than 45 mins and this morning they appeared milder..... this has happened before so I can only hope that time will tell us more!

I'm hope your as excited reading this as I have been writing although I should really be meal planning :)

TIPS: Organisation, timely planning is tricky at first but the absolute key to success. If your meals are there to provide daily your work is done and day to day living is there to enjoy!

Catch you soon ........... :)
