Thank you for the very positive and encouraging replies to the videos, folks. Wherever possible, I will try to get back to people. This isn't always possible- I spend a LOT of time being marooned by public transport as I am not allowed to drive.

I have been using diet to manage seizures for over 2 years now and much prefer this to using medication. This is what suits me and my condition at present. I appreciate that everybody is unique and needs an INDIVIDUAL plan to handle their condition

@tegid247 I love this diet, the seizures are down and I'm feeling good.

Wow your looking buff. Well I’m trying the diet I’m ill from the pills that don’t work any more I have the Partial Tonic Colonic seizures and I’m on my own no one wants me to do this but I made it to ketosis in the last couple of days its been a bit of a rocky road and I’m getting no help. But noticing some difference. I’m so glad to see some one who knows about this. Info is welcome.

So nice to hear a positive update! :) It is also nice to hear that the ketogenic diet has worked for you- I have considered it for some time, and now I have a little more inspiration to get off my butt and try it!

As for Livejournal, it is basically a diary of sorts that is available for all the internet to see. I have been involved since 2003, and have met so many wonderful people through it. (BIG following in the UK through there, as well)

Thanks for the response!
