Was diagnosed w/ gastroparesis a month ago. Despite altering my eating habits and meds, trying to get strength (and weight) back has been difficult. Suggestions welcome to combat this. (trying to get back to at least 140-150lbs. Lost almost 30lbs. this past year alone. Need to get some padding back on. All other tests (endo, colonoscopy) came up negative.

I lost 20 pounds before the gastroparesis diagnosis. My GI doctor said to eat six small low fiber meals a day. A dietician added protein drinks. We now have an adjustable bed and keep the head raised.
