Comment by Sara Pena-Gonzalez on January 27, 2012 at 8:56pm: Im wondering if there are any good gluten free recipes out there for breakfast because im thinking of going gluten free

Comment by Amie on December 22, 2010 at 3:36pm: Gang,

I need help! I am 31 y.o. with intractable absence and generalized ideopathic epilepsy. Started LGIT 1 week ago and have gone over carb count every day by about 30 grams. The nutrionist is going to try to help me next week, but I am having a hard time figuring out what to eat for breakfast lunch and dinner that is not steak or bacon or egg. Any advice?!
Thanks!!!

Comment by Kristine on April 17, 2010 at 11:20am: Hi everyone, I just wanted to introduce myself. My daughter, Delia, was diagnosed with epilepsy at 4 weeks of age. We are currently on the LGIT diet and are looking at possibly going full Keto if the latest adjustments don't work. Any help or great new main dishes would be great. I am looking forward to connecting with all of you.

Comment by Violet on September 23, 2009 at 11:23pm: Hello everyone. I have always been a firm believer that diet controlled every aspect or our lives. For years I was a vegetarian and when I started eating flesh again my life fell apart. Now that I am being treated for epilepsy I have gradually started going back to my vegetarian diet. I started by eliminating beef from my diet in February of this year. I feel much better. One of my church members told me that people with seizure disorders should stay away from sage. Is anyone aware of that?

Comment by elsasmom on August 25, 2009 at 10:28am: capital "T" refers to tablespoon. small "t" refers to teaspoon. I really should be more careful to spell them out!

Comment by luvmyangels on August 5, 2009 at 7:09pm: I know many of you have seen the recipe for the OOpsie rolls, but thought I should put it over here for any new parents that come on. Wouldn't want anyone to miss out on these!!
