New Year Health Tips for Truckers


Gatorade? Who needs gatorade? I've always found that I get better exercise after drinking beer.

News flash- belching pushes you backwards. Farting is what you really want to do if you're going forward. Get one with enough force, and time the lighter just right, it's like a mini rocket launcher strapped to your rear end. So skip the beer and go for beans instead.

It's always better to burp and taste it than fart and waste it!:fart:
 
Heck 2 packets fill me up. I put honey in mine...4 packs?? step away from the buffet driver...:bullhorn:
Maple syrup & brown sugar, ... always add more maple syrup.

But if I eat 4 packets instead of my usual 3, ... about 20 minutes later I'll be locking myself in the bathroom with a newspaper.
 
I will eat more fish and chicken tihs year and more veggies, This will be easy for me as like them all.

The hard part comes with cutting down on my beer consumption, I can do that . I won't even attempt quitting smoking as that would be a complete failure .

Ditto, except for the part about the beer. I think I need to increase my brew consumption, as I haven't had even one in over 2 months.

I only eat oatmeal at home. Why would I get oatmeal at a buffet when there's eggs & bacon & sausage & all kinds of other unhealthy stuff to pig out on that tastes way better?
At home I only eat oatmeal because I'm too lazy to cook the unhealthier stuff.

How to cook oatmeal: Empty packet into a large bowl. Add 2/3 cup of water out of the red spout on the water cooler. Stir.

I'm happy with my relationship with alcohol.

I seem to be immune to addiction. When I was a teenager I drank so much I think it's what caused permanent acid reflux. All of my friends are alcoholics, .. except me, .. though I drank just as much as they did. In 2003 I moved about 40 miles away from all them guys, and it wasn't until about 2 months later, suddenly one day I was at the gas station walking past the beer coolers & realized "Damn, .. I haven't had a beer in 2 months".

When I hang out with friends who are alcoholics, I can drink. No regrets, no "wagon" to worry about falling off of, because I never became physically addicted in the first place.
 
4 packets is a buffet no matter where you are/// maybe a feed bucket of oats???LOL

4 packets doesn't even make as much quantity as what you'd get if you actually followed the directions on a regular size can of Campbell's soup, and actually add water.
 
canjuntrucker59.....your Avatar is scary. 8 years ago I visited the ranch in Golar Wash, death Valley where Manson was caught, while on a Jeep trip. You could spend the night as the Park Service still had beds in it and a guest book you culd sign. Someone from Germany spent the night a few days before we went. It was creepy! Its burnt down now I guess.

Anyway...about the topic. Truckers have it rougher than most as its hard to get regular exercise and that makes digestion worse. Throw in the poor diets (you know who you are) and it gets even worse. Eatin good helps but I've found that digestive enzymes are a must. A friend gave me some a year ago and I have not been without them since. Try a good blend with many enzymes like Rezvera or SciTrition No-Bloat (No-Bloat). You'll thank me :)
 
.......... Truckers have it rougher than most as its hard to get regular exercise ..........

Is it? Funny. I got plenty of regular exercise as a driver, but I don't do things that are hard. I only do things that are fun. So if it's hard to get regular exercise, then how did I manage it? Hm....

(yeah, I'm a smart-ass.)

I know what you are saying, but I get really sick of hearing- and reading- excuses. It is no harder to stay physically fit as a truck driver than it is for many other people. There are truckers participating in triathlons, after all. Can't get much more fit than that.

So cease with the excuses. Trucking does not make one fat. Trucking does not make one lazy. Quit blaming trucking. If you are fat and lazy, you have only yourself to blame.
