What a year 2011 has been! Between Facebook, videos, programs, and my new book, we’ve covered a lot of ground when it comes to learning to live (well!) with gastroparesis. To help close out the year, I’ve compiled the eleven most-read blog posts from 2011. I absolutely love that these posts cover all aspects of a comprehensive gastroparesis management plan: dietary modifications, nutrition, supplementation, lifestyle practices, appropriate medical treatment, complementary treatment, and emotional coping/support. That, after all, is the only way to truly live well with gastroparesis!

11…FAQ: The Living Well with Gastroparesis Program Edition: with the LWWGP Group Program being one of the biggest hits of 2011, there have been lots of questions about the new and improved Self-Guided program.

10…My Keys to Living Well with Gastroparesis: I’m not symptom-free, I’m not eating “normally,” but I AM living well! 

9…Walking: My Secret Weapon: Truly one of the most important parts of my own gastroparesis management plan!

8…The Benefits of Blackstrap Molasses: Another “secret weapon,” this one for easily digested and absorbed minerals like iron and magnesium. 

7…Never Say Never: Shana’s Story: Can people with GP get better over time? Yep! Shana is proof. 

6…Let’s Talk About: Trauma & Gastroparesis: This was a deeply personal blog post eleven years in the making. 

5…Recipe: Winter Vegetable Soup: Still one of my favorites — nourishing and GP-friendly. 

4…FAQ: Should I Take Vitamins: My personal vitamin regimen has changed a bit since I first wrote this post, so I’ve updated it with my current faves. 

3…Ginger: Gastroparesis Super Food: Nature’s anti-nausea med comes in many forms. 

2…Finding a Specialist: Often one of the most difficult aspects of managing GP is finding a knowledgeable, caring doctor. I asked you to recommend your favorite GI docs to others. 

And the most-read post from 2011 is…

Gastroparesis Diet Myths & Misconceptions: In my opinion one of the reasons that GPers seem to spiral downward after diagnosis is a severely restricted diet and lack of adequate nutrition. We need to make changes to our diet in order to manage symptoms, but over-restricting can be counterproductive. (Link to FAQ video on the same topic has been added at the end!)
