Most people think trucking is only dangerous because of the road. Truth is the biggest danger is what's happening inside the cab: Obesity, sleep apnea, high blood pressure and diabetes.
I'm a trucker who has lost 60lbs since Jan.1 and I am fighting back. Follow for the journey.
Left 36yrs, day one behind the wheel
Right 47yrs same day, 11 years later
I rolled into trucking at 265 lbs, spent a decade climbing to 330 lbs, and today I'm back down to 250 lbs and still dropping.
Sometimes the hardest road you’ll ever travel is the one back to yourself
After the storm, the stars don’t shine brighter they just remind you they never left.
At home after a couple of months on the road. Much needed mental reset.

Walked into the ice cream aisle yesterday. My old favorite, neapolitan, was staring at me. Used to numb myself with it. But I heard the alarm this time. I walked away. 75 Hard — Day 5. Discipline whispered louder than comfort. #FatTruckerGettingHealthy#TruckerHealth#75Hard
@drjamesdinic This is so true. Ibwent carnivore January 1, I took 50 mg losartan for years. By mid-February, I was completely free of meds, and BP consistently staying in 120/80 range +or- 3 points
Left: 3XL. Stressed. No workouts. SAD diet.
Right: 2XL. Managing stress. Daily movement. Carnivore.
5 months apart.
Not just a size down—it's a mindset shift.
Discipline > comfort.
Growth starts where excuses end.

@Losing200Pounds @MarkBski@SmithyFitnessTo@voteforpedro Rome wasn't built in a day. That is a big victory sir. You are putting in the work and that is motivation.
@SBakerMD@BetterFedBeef I just tried picanha for the first time last month, I am here to say that I will never go without it again. Absolutely delicious
Weather and work tried to knock me off track this week. Still got 7,718 steps, 1h12m of movement, and 3.2 miles in. It’s not about perfect — it’s about progress. Show up when you can. Keep grinding. #FTGH#FatTruckerGettingHealthy#DisciplineOverMotivation
