How old is your daughter? What type of texture does she eat? Chopped, pureed
etc.
My daughter is 11 and has been on the Keto diet for about 9 months. She eats 3
meals by mouth ( pureed)and gets 1 via G-tube (Keto-Cal). She adjusted to it in
about a month. We gave her sugar free jello to even out her wanting to eat
longer. We have since added MCT Oil and have seen better control of seizures and
better BM's. Her weight is stable and she has gained with her growth and has
finally filled out some and looks healthy. The diet is not the total answer to
her seizures, but it has taken her from 10 to 20 seizures a day down to 0 to 5 a
day. At this point we are very happy with seizure control.

My daughter just started the Keto diet 8 days ago. She continues to
be very irritable and fatigued. How long is the adjustment period?
She gets three rcf meals via g tube and one meal by mouth. She will
eat all her fruit and heavy cream but refuses to eat all of her
protein/fat (chicken salad). Does anyone have any suggestions.
It's very difficult to force her, especially we worked so hard to
get her to start eating by mouth again.
