A JAR OF CARROTS

Today was Emmalin's first day to be able to eat a whole jar (actually about a jar and a quarter) of baby food since she started the Ketogenic Diet.  This may not seem like a big deal to you, but it is a HUGE deal to us.  For those who don't know a lot about the Ketogenic Diet, it is a very high fat, low carbohydrate and protien diet.  Since Emmalin has been on it, she hasn't been allowed to eat very many carbohydrates.  The only reason that she has been allowed to eat this many now is because we are weaning her off the diet.  We are now down to 1.5:1 (1.5 times more fat for each carbohydrate and protein that she eats) and we are hoping to be off the diet completely by next week.  I will keep you posted!
