I am stopping in to say hello.. I been busy working on me, I moved into storage, drove to Maine for a week and in 2 weeks i should be going to Iowa to start my new trucking career.

I am in Maine now and its 34 out and we have 6" of new snow on the ground.

When I was in truckin school i gave one of my instructors all my 5xl shirts maybe 30 shirts and still about 10 bags of big clothes to goodwill

Here is a New Pic. I am down to 309 or something like that now. 126 lost and wearing a 46 waist I almost died when I tried on 48s and they were too big. I bought a 2xl Levis hoodie for Maine. 2xl thats a first for me

Good job! I'd been wondering about you and how you're doing. Keep up the good work.

You are doing great Unidos! I wish you much continued success in your weight loss and your new career. Be careful with the Truck Stop restraunts.

Ya know, that's something I never thought about before -- what do newbie WLSers that have to be on the road all the time eat?

I know the first year or so out from my surgery I couldn't hardly stand anything at Denny's or IHOP .. It seemed to all make me ill .. or ill thinking about eating their food ..

Fortunately, a lot of truck stops now are offering buffets, and you should be able to find some salad stuff and high-protein foods on those, although you probably won't be getting your money's worth as a post-op ..

i am going to take food on the truck i can eat, getting a electric cooler. As far as eating at the truck stops they have baked fish and chicken breast. I got an app for my iphone that gives the nutritional values for the food at all the major food chains. This has been a great help so far. I dont plan on eating truck stop food ever but worse case chicken and fish..
