Fat Fight


What tools would drivers need to be able to live healthier on the road? What would motivate drivers to care more about their health? This is not to imply drivers don't care about their health, but to discover the root cause of obesity in the industry. I am well aware that the demands of the job are extremely counter productive to weight loss. I am focused on what can be changed that is within the drivers control.
Its the job. Not all your fault. Same risks happen to those who have to sit at a desk all day. Agree with many above. It will take extra work on your part:

Packing vegetables as snacks
Counting calories
Pulling over and doing some exercise
Checking your labs such as thyroid, etc.
getting good sleep
putting some good music on and wiggling as you drive ( and yes its dooable)
decrease stress
see a medical provider regularly to keep you on a good regimen.

Hang in there. good question!
